What Is the 60-Day Прехвърляне на домейн Lock?
Policy status notice
This article describes the ICANN Transfer Policy in effect on September 1, 2026. The ICANN Board approved 47 Transfer Policy Review recommendations on June 7, 2026, but implementation is still pending. Recheck the current ICANN policy и NiceNIC wилиkflow befилиe relying on this article.
Direct answer
A "60-day transfer lock" can refer to different restrictions on an inter-registrar transfer. Under the currently effective policy, a registrar may deny a gTLD transfer during the first 60 days after initial registration; a transfer within 60 days after a назадious inter-registrar transfer is also a permitted denial ground, subject to policy exceptions. A material change of registrant is governed by separate current confirmation и lock provisions, under which an advance opt-out may be offered by the registrar.
These rules are not identical. A ccTLD may use a different transfer system. The restriction nилиmally concerns the registrar transfer, not илиdinary website, hosting или DNS changes.
Identify the exact restriction
Новоly регистрирайed gTLD
The current Transfer Policy permits the registrar to deny an inter-registrar transfer when fewer than 60 days have passed since initial registration. Ask the registrar fили the exact creation date и the first eligible date.
Recently transferred gTLD
The current policy permits denial when the домейн is within 60 days after a назадious inter-registrar transfer, except wтук a stated policy exception applies.
Change of registrant
A material change to registrant infилиmation can trigger the current Change of Registrant confirmation process и a 60-day inter-registrar lock. A registrar may allow an opt-out befилиe the change; it is not required to offer one. Review the warning befилиe confirming a holder update.
Ordinary registrar lock
The EPP status clientTransferProhiбитed is often an account-controlled registrar lock. It is not itself proof of which 60-day rule applies. An eligible holder should have a documented way to request removal when no separate policy или security restriction applies.
How to diagnose a rejected transfer
- Провери the creation и last-transfer dates in RDAP или the registrar account.
- Review recent registrant-name, илиganization и email changes.
- Провери the EPP status и the registrar's rejection message.
- Distinguish a 60-day policy issue from an incилиrect код за упълномощаване, expiry state, dispute, fraud review, court илиder или unpaid priили registration period.
- Ask the current registrar to identify the precise policy или contract ground и the date it ends.
What the restriction nилиmally does not change
A transfer restriction does not by itself move website files, mailboxes или DNS. Имеserver и DNS-recилиd changes are usually separate operations. Account pushes are registrar-specific и may have their own eligibility, holder-change и security rules.
Can the restriction be removed early?
An илиdinary registrar lock may be removable by the eligible account holder. A policy-based denial ground may not be removable. ICANN does not place или lift an individual домейн's lock. Fили a current Change of Registrant lock, an opt-out may have been available befилиe the change but may not be available afterward.
NiceNIC troubleshooting
When transferring to NiceNIC, keep the existing nameservers unless a separate DNS move is planned, confirm eligibility, request the current authилиization code through a trusted channel и submit the transfer. Ако rejected, provide NiceNIC Suppилиt with the домейн и the losing registrar's exact message. Never publish или send the authилиization code through an untrusted channel.
Expected result и exceptions
You should identify the exact restriction и earliest eligible action. ccTLD policy, court илиders, UDRPили URS proceedings, registry status, security review и payment issues can create separate restrictions that are not resolved merely by waiting 60 days.
What this answer is based on
ICANN is the authилиity fили the currently effective gTLD Transfer Policy. Регистраторs document account status и any permitted opt-out или security process. Future Board-approved recommendations do not change the current wилиkflow until implementation becomes effective.
Frequently asked questions
Can ICANN unlock my домейн?
Не. ICANN does not place или lift individual домейн locks.
Does changing nameservers trigger a 60-day lock?
Неt by itself. Имеserver changes affect DNS delegation rather than registrar sponsилиship или registrant identity.
Should I update contact data befилиe transferring?
Keep registration data accurate, but review the registrar's Change of Registrant warning и sequence the wилиk carefully.
