How do I transfer a non-dot-ca domain from one registrant to another?


This process is called a registRANT transfer for non-dot-ca domains. Unlike dot-ca domains, we can move any non-dot-ca domain freely between registrants and between Namespro.ca accounts. However, the transfer must be authorized by either the account owner or the admin contact of the domain via e-mail. From start to finish, here is the process:

1)User first creates a receiving Namespro.ca account at http://www.namespro.ca/NewAccount.asp. (User can skip this step and use an existing Namespro.ca account where the domain is to be managed from.)

2)User creates a receiving registrant profile by following steps a to g below. (User can skip this step if the receiving registrant already exists.)

a.Log into the receiving Namespro.ca account.

b.Click on the "register a domain" tab on the left menu.

c.Search for a dummy dot-com domain (such as asdfasdf1234567.com) and add the domain to your shopping cart.

d.Continue the process by clicking on the "checkout" button.

e.Choose "new registrant" to create a new registrant profile, which will receive the domain name.

f.Enter the contact information accordingly and save.

g.Stop at the payment page (you do not wish to actually register the dummy domain).

3)Once step 1 and 2 are complete, the user can send us a ticket via our online support system with the following information:

Action = non-dot-ca domains movement

Domain(s) involved =

Receiving Namespro.ca account e-mail =

Receiving registrant name =

Receiving registrant admin e-mail address =

4)We then request an authorization e-mail to be sent to us from either the account owner e-mail address or admin contact e-mail address.

5)When we receive the authorization e-mail, the domain movement will be performed accordingly.


Note

If Namespro.ca is not currently the registrar for the domain(s) in question, it is necessary to first perform a registRAR transfer to bring it under our management. Please refer to KB-1002 for more instructions on how to perform a registRAR transfer. Once the registRAR transfer is complete, the steps in this KB article can then be executed.
