Command domain-transfer can be used for a domain transfer from another registrar to us.

NOTICE! All domains require re-registration with the domain owner’s consent to the rules of (pre) registration of domain names. Our Terms and Conditions require you to familiarize your customers with our terms and conditions and the applicable domain registry! Failure to do so may result in the loss of the domain in the event of a domain dispute without compensation.

The command is synchronous only for CZ domain, ie. domains in case of the proper authorization will be transferred immediately and now you know the result. For other domains transfer is asynchronous, you will get the result by notification.

• auth_info – authorization password – required only for certain domains (cz, gTLD)
• owner_c – owner contact identifier – required parameter only for registers that require it (sk, eu, gTLD)
