Transfer notes

* A .CC 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.
* Ensure, that the Email-Address of the Owner and Admin-C. is active, as a confirmation email is sent to this address.
* Initiate the transfer on time and not just shortly before the domain expires.
* Please ensure that the domain is older than 60 days otherwise the transfer will be denied.
