What is an registrar-registrar transfer?

A registrar-registrar transfer is the process of moving a domain name from another registrar to the METUnic panel or a domain name from the METUnic panel to another registrar.

How can I transfer my domain name from another registrar to METUnic?

You can follow the steps below to transfer your domain name from a different registrar to METUnic:

  1. The transfer lock must be removed from the registrar where your domain name is located.
  2. You need to obtain an “Authorization Code” from the registrar. This code is required for the transfer of your domain name to METUnic.
  3. For the domain name you want to transfer to METUnic, click the “Transfer” button on your control panel and type your domain name. Then enter the authorization code in the relevant field.
  4. Complete the transfer application by paying the transfer fee.
  5. The transfer fee is equivalent to one (1) year’s payment of the domain name and the duration of the domain name is extended by one (1) year when the transfer process is completed.

*For the transfer of a domain name that already has a five (5) year term, one(1) year fee is charged, but a one (1) year extension is not available.

How can I transfer my domain name from METUnic to a different registrar?

To transfer your domain name to a different registrar, follow these steps:

  1. In your control panel, go to “Services → My Domains”.
  2. Click the “Info” button to the right of the domain name.
  3. In the transfer lock section, select “Unlock the registrar lock so the domain name can be transferred.” to disable the transfer lock.
  4. Click the “Show Transfer Authorization Code” box.

To start a transfer, at least 60 days must have passed since the domain name was registered and since it was transferred to its current registrar.

Internal transfer (between METUnic accounts)

To move your domain name from one METUnic account to another METUnic account.

What is Internal Transfer?

Internal Transfer is the process of moving a domain name from one METUnic panel to another METUnic panel.

This process, which was previously called Transfer Between Accounts and performed with a form, has been made undocumented / online to make it simpler and more convenient for users.

How to make an Internal Transfer?

You can perform the Internal Transfer process, which you can perform in a documentless way, from the “Internal Transfer” menu on the user panel.

You can access the illustrated explanation in our blog guide “METUnic İç Transfer Nasıl Yapılır?” (in Turkish) (opens in a new tab).

What are Sending Account and Receiving Account?

The sending account is the name given to the panel where the domain name is currently located. If the receiving account initiated the Internal Transfer, it is the account that makes the decision to approve or reject the Internal Transfer process initiated for the domain name.

The receiving account is the name given to the new panel to which the domain name will be transferred when the Internal Transfer is initiated. If the sending account initiated the Internal Transfer, it is the account that makes the decision to approve or deny the initiated Internal Transfer for the domain name.

How many days does it take to complete an Internal Transfer?

In order for the Internal Transfer transaction to be completed, the deciding account must approve the transaction. The email regarding the domain name for which an Internal Transfer transaction has been initiated is sent to both the receiving and sending account.

If no action is taken by the deciding account for the relevant Internal Transfer transaction within five (5) days, the transaction is automatically canceled.

After the online Internal Transfer request is initiated, if approval is given, the transfer is completed within fifteen (15) minutes.

Is there a fee for internal transfer?

Internal Transfer within METUnic is free of charge.

What happens if the Internal Transfer is not approved?

In order for the Internal Transfer transaction to be completed, the customer panel where the domain name is located will be expected to give approval within five (5) days. Internal Transfer requests that are not approved within this period are automatically canceled.

If you have any problems with the process, you can contact us through the channels on the Help/Support page and get detailed information about the subject.

How are domain name related transactions affected by the Internal Transfer process?

If you perform an Internal Transfer in the METUnic panel, the services connected to the relevant domain name are also transferred.

Services such as routing, DNS and NS records are moved directly to the receiving account’s panel.

In which cases is an Internal Transfer possible?

If your domain name is registered with METUnic but not in your account, you can transfer the domain name to your account via Internal Transfer.

For this process, if you are in contact with the METUnic account where the domain name is located, you can complete your transfer request instantly by giving mutual approval.

What are the situations where the Internal Transfer transaction will be canceled?
  • If the receiving or sending account whose approval is expected within the scope of Internal Transfer does not respond to the request for five (5) days, the transfer transaction will be canceled automatically.
  • If the receiving or sending account whose approval is expected within the scope of the Internal Transfer declines, the transaction will be canceled.
  • METUnic reserves the right to intervene in special circumstances.

FAQ

gTLD Domain Names FAQ

Who can use gTLD domain names?

There are no user restrictions on gTLD domain names (.com, .net, .org, .info, .pro and others). Individuals, companies, associations and institutions, whether in Türkiye or anywhere else in the world, can register these domain names without providing any documents.

Although most extensions suggest a particular purpose (for example, .com for commercial sites and .org for organizations), this is not a requirement; you can choose the extension that best fits your needs and your brand.

What are the advantages of gTLD domain names?

gTLD extensions are recognized worldwide, letting you present your brand with a memorable address that is familiar outside Türkiye as well.

  • International recognition: Visitors are used to these extensions, so they remember your address easily and visit it with confidence.
  • Fast, document-free registration: No documents are required to apply; your domain name is ready to use in a short time.
  • Wide choice: You can choose from a range of extensions for your commercial, corporate, informational or personal project.
  • Brand protection: By registering the gTLD versions of the same name alongside your .com.tr domain name, you can protect your brand from being used by others.
Who has the authority to allocate gTLD domain names?

gTLD extensions are operated by registries authorized by ICANN, the organization that manages the internet's domain name system. For example, the .com and .net extensions are operated by Verisign, and the .org extension by Public Interest Registry (PIR).

Registries do not sell domain names directly to end users; registration is carried out through ICANN-accredited registrars. As an ICANN-accredited registrar, METUnic registers gTLD domain names directly, with no intermediary.

Is it safe to use a gTLD domain name?

Yes. gTLD domain names are registered in accordance with ICANN policies and procedures and are the most widely used extensions worldwide, which gives your visitors a trustworthy impression.

Because METUnic is an ICANN-accredited registrar, your domain name is registered directly with the registrar, not with an intermediary. You can also use our Security Packages to protect your domain name against unauthorized transfer and deletion.

How do I register a gTLD domain name?

First, check whether the domain name you want is available using the domain search box. If the domain name has not been registered by someone else, add it to your cart, choose the registration period and complete your payment; no documents are required for gTLD domain names.

Some extensions have premium domain names set by the registry. Premium domain names have different pricing and a different registration process; to get a price quote and register one of these domain names, you can open a support ticket specifying the name you want.

The gTLD domain name I want appears to be in use. What can I do?

The gTLD domain name system works on a "first come, first served" basis. So if the domain name you want has already been registered by someone else, there is no service METUnic can offer you for that domain name. In this case, you can apply for a different domain name.

What should I keep in mind when getting a domain name with a gTLD extension?
  • Your domain name must be 2 to 63 characters long.
  • You can use the letters A-Z, the digits 0-9 and the hyphen (-). A hyphen (-) cannot be used at the beginning or end of the domain name.
  • Choose a memorable name that is relevant to your website content.
  • Check the history of the name you plan to register and the content of similar names.
  • Choose a domain name that points visitors to your content and is SEO-friendly.
  • Avoid confusion between English and Turkish characters.
  • Choose a domain name that is easy to type and read, and avoid misspellings.
  • If you are building a site that you will support through other channels such as social media, also check that the name meets their requirements.
How can I find out the prices of gTLD domain names?
