[edit] API

[edit] Domain Registration

Domains can be registered in Real-Time with the API AddDomain command.

command = AddDomain
domain  = (DOMAIN)

REQUIRED

ownercontact0 = (CONTACT)
admincontact0 = (CONTACT)
techcontact0 = (CONTACT)
billingcontact0 = (CONTACT)
nameserver0 = (NAMESERVER)
nameserver1 = (NAMESERVER)

OPTIONAL

auth = <TEXT> | <NULL>
transferlock = 0 | 1 | <NULL>
subuser = <TEXT> | <NULL>

X-SG-RCBID = <TEXT>
X-ADMIN-IDNUMBER = <TEXT>

[edit] Domain Transfer

The transfer has to be initiated by the gaining registrar and can be requested with the API TransferDomain command.
A valid Authorization Code must be provided to initiate a transfer successfully. You may obtain the authorization code from the losing registrar.
As soon as a domain transfer has been initiated it can either be approved ("ACK") by Registrar or denied ("NACK") by Registrar. If the registry receives neither a denial ("NACK") nor an approval ("ACK") the transfer will be ACKed after 5 days.

command = TransferDomain
domain = (DOMAIN)

REQUIRED

ownercontact0 = <contact handle>
admincontact0 = <contact handle>
techcontact0 = <contact handle>
billingcontact0 = <contact handle>
auth = <TEXT>

OPTIONAL

subuser = <TEXT> | <NULL>
period = <PERIOD>
transferlock = 0 | 1 | <NULL>

[edit] Delete Domain

Domains can be deleted with the API DeleteDomain command.
There is a Deletion Restorable Period of 30 days and a following Deletion Hold Period of 0 days.

command = DeleteDomain
domain = (DOMAIN)

[edit] Restore Domain

Restores can be processed automatically within the specified deletion restorable period after the expiration date. Please use the command RestoreDomain.

command = RestoreDomain
domain = (DOMAIN)

OPTIONAL

renewalmode = <NULL> | <TEXT>
subuser = <TEXT>

[edit] Ownerchange

All contact information with the exception of registrant Name, Firstname and Organisation can be updated through the ModifyDomain command.
In order to change the owner you have to request a trade with the TradeDomain command. This can be done through our web interface or through our API:

command = TradeDomain
domain = <DOMAIN>
ownercontact0 = <CONTACT>

OPTIONAL

X-SG-RCBID = <TEXT>

If the new registrant is an organisation from Singapore: The company registration number has to be provided as X-SG-RCBID.

If the new registrant is an individual from Singapore: please provide their SingPass in the X-SG-RCBID field.

If the new registrant is not from Singapore: Do not provide X-SG-RCBID.

[edit] TLD specific

[edit] Registration

.COM.SG

.SG and .COM.SG

additional parameter X-SG-RCBID
role	country of origin	entity	value
registrant	SG	organization	company registration number
registrant	SG	individual	SingPass ID
registrant	other	organization	n/a
registrant	other	individual	n/a

additional parameter X-ADMIN-IDNUMBER
role	country of origin	entity	value

admin-c	SG	individual	Singpass ID
admin-c	other	organization	n/a (admin-c will be replaced by local presence service)
admin-c	other	individual	n/a (admin-c will be replaced by local presence service)

[edit] Valid format of the Singpass ID

SingPass ID (or NRIC) refers to the individual's National Registration Identity Card which has to consist of exactly one letter ("S", "T", "F" or "G") followed by seven digits followed by one checksum letter.
Example: S1234567A

Note: Singpass Foreign user Account (SFA) IDs are not accepted. They are similar to normal Singpass numbers but start with a Y.

[edit] Domain Transfers

[edit] Inbound Domain Transfers

Additionally to the Authorization Code, the registry requires that the current contact information and name servers of the domain will be submitted with the transfer request. To do so, you have to use the ownercontact0, admincontact0, techcontact0 and billingcontact0 parameters and at least two name servers in the following syntax:

command = TransferDomain
domain = <domain>
auth = <auth>
ownercontact0 = <contact handle>
admincontact0 = <contact handle>
techcontact0 = <contact handle>
billingcontact0 = <contact handle>
nameserver0 = <name server>
nameserver1 = <name server>

Be sure that you've created valid contact handles with the current contact information of the .SG domain you wish to transfer the respective domain. After 7 days, the registry will approve the transfer if the losing registrar does not decline the transfer.

Several registrars also need a so called AGNT number before they will approve an outgoing transfer, our AGNT number is AGNT-1643.

[edit] Outbound Domain Transfers

In order to transfer a domain away you have to remove the transfer lock (epp status clientTransferProhibited). This can only be done if the local presence service is not in use. A few minutes after removing the transfer lock you will receive an UPDATE::SUCCESSFUL message containing the new Authorization Code. At the same time the Authorization Code will be stored as property AUTH of the domain and also a property X-SG-AUTH-EXPIRATIONDATE indicating when the Authorization Code will expire (after 14 days).

[edit] Outbound Internal Transfers

If the domain should be transferred to another reseller of HEXONET the domain has also to be unlocked and the same AUTH is required.

[edit] Deletion

To delete a .SG domain with immediate effect please contact our support team at [email protected].

[edit] Addons

[edit] RegistrarOC

Restore Process

To restore a domain as a RegistrarOC customer, you simply have to execute the RestoreDomain command. HEXONET directly forwards the restore request to the registry, which performs the restore in real-time. As soon as the restore is complete, the domain will get assigned to your account with the original domain data.
