Update contact details step by step
1. Open the Registrant tab
Go to Dashboard, then Domains, select the domain and open the Registrant tab.
2. Click Edit
Change the fields you need. Choose Person or Company to match the legal owner.
3. Decide about the transfer lock
If you change the name, organization or email, we ask whether to allow transfers in the next 60 days. Tick Allow transfer within 60 days only if you plan to move the domain soon. Read about the 60 day transfer lock.
4. Save and confirm
For a change of registrant, the current registrant receives an email with a confirmation link. The change applies once it is confirmed. Both the old and the new registrant then receive a notice.
5. Verify the new email
If the email address changed, we send a verification link to it. Click it within 15 days. See verify registrant email.
Update many domains at once
In the Domains list, tick the domains, then choose Edit registrant from the bulk actions. The same rules for confirmation and the 60 day lock apply to each domain.
I sold the domain. How do I hand it over?
Change the registrant to the buyer and confirm. If the buyer uses another registrar, give them the EPP code after the change. See how to get an EPP code.
I no longer have access to the old registrant email. What now?
Write to [email protected] from your account email and include the domain name. We verify that you control the account and the domain before we help with the change.
Will my details be public?
