Ownerchange

All contact information with the exception of registrant Name, Firstname and Organisation can be updated through the ModifyDomain command.

command = TradeDomain

Before a trade gets initiated at the registry, a confirmation is required: A fax form is required by the registry to process a trade. Once confirmed then the trade is initiated.

A Change of Registrar with the simultaneous change in the Registrant is not possible. Please be aware that domain name must be already managed by us. If the domain is currently managed by another registrar there are two possibilities:
   1.) first step: transfer the domain to us, second step: trade the domain with us.
   2.) first step: trade the domain with the current registrar, second step: transfer the domain to us.

Registration

Some special parameters have to be specified:

X-NICSE-IDNUMBER - This number must be provided for individuals as well as for organizations. For individuals or companies located in Sweden a valid Swedish personal or organizational number must be stated (6 digits, dash, 4 digits). For individuals and companies outside of Sweden the ID number (e.g. Civic registration number, company registration number, or the equivalent) can consist of 4 to 123 characters.

X-NICSE-VATID - The VAT id is only required for companies that are located inside the European Union but outside Sweden.

Example API call to register a SE domain for a german company:

command = AddDomain
domain = yourdomain.se
ownercontact0 = Owner Contact Handle
x-nicse-idnumber = [DE]123456789
x-nicse-vatid = DE123456789

By default there is a privacy protection for individual registrants in place. You can disclose the information within the AddDomain or ModifyDomain command using the following extension:

X-NICSE-DISCLOSE = 0 | 1 

Third Level Domain Names

• ORG.SE: for not-for-profit associations.
• PP.SE: only private individuals.
  The registrant must be a natural person with a Swedish personal identity number or a Swedish coordination number.
• PARTI.SE: for political parties.
• PRESS.SE: for magazines and journals.
  Registration under .PRESS.SE requires an authorization to publish issued by the Swedish Patent and Registration Office (PRV).
• TM.SE: for trademarks.
  If certain letters or numbers are an explicit part of the trademark, these parts shall also be included in the domain name. In order to register a trademark as a domain name, the trademark must be protected according to one of the following three alternatives:
  1. A national distinguishing feature for products or services that is registered at the Swedish Patent and Registration Office (PRV) and where the registration has come into effect;
  2. An international distinguishing feature that is protected in accordance with the Madrid Protocol and, after designation, has been registered, and the registration has come into effect in Sweden; or
  3. A distinguishing feature that through registration as an EU trademark at the Office of Harmonization for the Internal Market (OHIM) registration authorities in Alicante, Spain, has come into effect in Sweden.

  Only the entire word that is the trademark, as stated on the registration document, is registered as domain name under .TM.SE.

  Business enterprises may be registered under the county-related domain name (corresponding to the county's abbreviation) in the county where the applicant has its head office. For registration, the applicant must run a business enterprise and must be registered for corporate taxation (i.e. the applicant has an F-tax certificate).

Restore Process

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.
