2.1.7 An error occurred while registering the domain

Banner

Domain name registration is a technical process that requires accuracy and attention to detail. A key aspect of this process is correctly filling in the payer’s contact information. This is not just a formality, but a necessary condition for successful registration and subsequent domain management.

Different domain zones have specific requirements for contact information. Inaccuracies or incomplete data can lead to registration refusal or complications in domain administration. Therefore, before starting the registration, it’s important to prepare all necessary data and enter it correctly.

We remind You: if You couldn’t fix the problem on Your own, we advise You to contact the Support Service

Error during domain renewal

Errors during domain renewal are often related to restrictions of specific domain zones. For example:

  1. Time restrictions:
    • Some domain zones have restrictions on the frequency of renewal. If the previous renewal was done recently, the next one may only be available after a certain period.
  2. Specific zone restrictions:
    • Some domains may have unique rules regarding the renewal procedure.
  3. Expiration:
    • If the domain has already expired, a special recovery procedure may be required instead of regular renewal.
  4. Domain blocking:
    • If the domain is blocked for any reason (for example, due to violation of usage rules), its renewal may be impossible.
  5. Outdated contact information:
    • If the domain owner’s contact details are outdated or need clarification, this may hinder the renewal process.
  6. Technical failures:
    • Sometimes errors can occur due to technical problems on the registrar’s or registry’s side.

We remind You in case of such errors, we recommend contacting the Support Service for clarification of details and assistance.

Error during domain transfer

When transferring a domain, errors may occur for the following reasons:

  • The transfer code is not specified or is incorrect.
  • A ban on domain transfer has been established.
  • Incorrectly filled domain contact.
  • Blocking status is set.

We inform You: to avoid such problems.

  1. Make sure You have an up-to-date transfer code from the current registrar.
  2. Check if there’s no transfer prohibition set in the domain settings at the current registrar.
  3. Carefully fill in the domain contact information, following all requirements of the new registrar.

We recommend You familiarize Yourself with our instruction on how to transfer the domain to us.

In case of any doubts or additional questions regarding the transfer process, we recommend contacting the Support Service for detailed instructions and assistance.
