Domain API

ICANN has reviewed the policies that govern domain transfers in the gTLD and nTLD spaces, and came up with a new Transfer Policy which includes a new process: Registrant Transfer (Change of Registrant). This new Transfer Policy will become effective on December 1, 2016.

A change of registrant have to be requested with a TradeDomain command.
