Deletion Process

.ASIA domains can be deleted online through the WebInterface or with the DeleteDomain command.

Restrictions

* According to registry policy at least one contact located in the .ASIA region has to be provided. If you do not have a local contact you may register .ASIA domains using our trustee service.
* Nameservers can only be given in the following combinations:
** No name servers at all
** 2 - 13 name servers

Transfer notes

* A .ASIA Domain Transfer must be initiated with a so-called Authorisation Code, which can be obtained from the current registrar through the owner or Admin-C of the domain.
* Ensure that your respective domain does not have a lock-status (REGISTRAR-LOCK or HOLD). This can be seen in the WHOIS. If the domain is locked, then the owner can demand that this be unlocked.

Transfer time

.ASIA transfer will take 5 days.
