Protect your domain name against transfers

Not all domains use the Client Transfer Prohibited status, just those that use a certain protocol (such as .com, .net., .info., .org, .biz). Most ccTLDS (ex. .eu, .be, .de etc.) do not use this status.

You can protect your domain name against unauthorized transfers.

To do so, please log into the management page of the concerned domain name, and use the “Transfer Lock” option in the “General information” section:

Then, select “Transfer protection” from the drop-down menu in the Batch Changes section below:

Click “Ok” and confirm your choice on the following page:

On the next page, you will see a confirmation message indicating that the operation was either successful or not valid for each domain.

If you get the message “Error: Operation not valid for this domain” it is probably because transfer protection is not used by that extension or is managed by the corresponding Registry.
