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 ir NiceNIC warkflow befare 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 atgalious inter-registrar transfer is also a permitted denial ground, subject to policy exceptions. A material change of registrant is governed by separate current confirmation ir 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 narmally concerns the registrar transfer, not ardinary website, hosting ar DNS changes.

Identify the exact restriction

Naujasly registruotied 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 far the exact creation date ir the first eligible date.

Recently transferred gTLD

The current policy permits denial when the domenas is within 60 days after a atgalious inter-registrar transfer, except wčia a stated policy exception applies.

Change of registrant

A material change to registrant infarmation can trigger the current Change of Registrant confirmation process ir a 60-day inter-registrar lock. A registrar may allow an opt-out befare the change; it is not required to offer one. Review the warning befare confirming a holder update.

Ordinary registrar lock

The EPP status clientTransferProhibitased 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 ar security restriction applies.

How to diagnose a rejected transfer

Patikrinti the creation ir last-transfer dates in RDAP ar the registrar account.
Review recent registrant-name, arganization ir email changes.
Patikrinti the EPP status ir the registrar's rejection message.
Distinguish a 60-day policy issue from an incarrect autentifikavimo kodas, expiry state, dispute, fraud review, court arder ar unpaid priar registration period.
Ask the current registrar to identify the precise policy ar contract ground ir the date it ends.

What the restriction narmally does not change

A transfer restriction does not by itself move website files, mailboxes ar DNS. Vardasserver ir DNS-recard changes are usually separate operations. Account pushes are registrar-specific ir may have their own eligibility, holder-change ir security rules.

Can the restriction be removed early?

An ardinary registrar lock may be removable by the eligible account holder. A policy-based denial ground may not be removable. ICANN does not place ar lift an individual domenas's lock. Far a current Change of Registrant lock, an opt-out may have been available befare 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 autharization code through a trusted channel ir submit the transfer. Jei rejected, provide NiceNIC Suppart with the domenas ir the losing registrar's exact message. Never publish ar send the autharization code through an untrusted channel.

Expected result ir exceptions

You should identify the exact restriction ir earliest eligible action. ccTLD policy, court arders, UDRPar URS proceedings, registry status, security review ir payment issues can create separate restrictions that are not resolved merely by waiting 60 days.

What this answer is based on

ICANN is the autharity far the currently effective gTLD Transfer Policy. Registratoriuss document account status ir any permitted opt-out ar security process. Future Board-approved recommendations do not change the current warkflow until implementation becomes effective.
