.es domain regulations
Index of regulations
Residency requirements
If the administrative, technic and/or billing contact resides in Spain, this has to be an individual, not a company.
Technical requirements
This extension doesn't have any technical requirements.
Registrations
.es domain registrations are immediate.
Transfers
The .ES domain transfers are free and do not imply the renewal of the domain. This happens as long as there are more than 30 days to expiration, in case there are less than 30 days to expiration the price is the same as the renewal and the domain will be renewed once the transfer is completed.
In order to complete the transfer of .ES domains, you must request the authorization code (AuthCode) from your current Registrar. This code will be sent to the Administrative Contact of the domain and will allow the transfer to begin.
Once the transfer has started, a new email will be sent to the Administrative Contact, from which it is possible to accept/cancel the transfer.
Renewals
Renewing your .ES domain only takes a minute and can completed at any time.
Cancellations
It's possible to request a cancellation of your .ES domain, visit the support center to open a support ticket. Please note, cancelling a name does not provide a refund of any registration fees.
DNS modifications
DNS modification is immediate, please note they must propagate through the network, this process can take up to 6-12 hours to complete, until then the domain will still point to the previous DNS servers.
DNSSEC
We allow the usage of DNSSEC on .es domains. Your domain can take advantage of this additional security layer that DNS servers that are compatible with this technology can provide.
More information is available at: DNSSEC: What is it and how does it work.
Domain owner change
.ES domains don't permit automatic owner changes, you must do it directly in Nic.es panel.
