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>
Before a trade gets initiated at the registry, a confirmation is required: Once confirmed then the trade is initiated.
Registration
If you wish to register a .RU domain for an individual through API, kindly add these additional parameters to the AddDomain API command:
X-RU-REGISTRANT-BIRTH-DATE = YYYY-MM-DD X-RU-REGISTRANT-PASSPORT-DATA = <TEXT> X-RU-ACCEPT-INDIVIDUAL-REGISTRATION-TAC = 0 | 1 (0 = No, 1 = Yes)
The customer in submitting a .RU domain registration through HEXONET explicitly agrees to indemnify HEXONET against any and all liability, loss, damages and legal costs in the transmission of identification information, understanding that HEXONET deletes identification information from all its systems immediately after transmission. The customer understands and accepts that the .RU registry may choose to store identification information along with other registration data on their own accord and completely independent from HEXONET.
Registrant Verification
In following cases a verification of the registrant is necessary:
- Change of data required of Registrant's identification
- Transfer to another Registrar
- Domain ownership transfer to another Registrant (change of owner)
- Cancellation of administration rights (deletion)
- Registration of .SU domains
For the various types of domain owners, the following information has to be provided:
- for legal entities: a copy of the certificate about state registration of a legal entity issued by the state authorities
- for natural persons: passport copy (personal details and issuance data)
- for entrepreneur: passport copy (personal details and issuance data)
Copies of identification documents need to get submitted to the registry by:
e-mail: [email protected] fax: +7 (495) 7370602 regular mail: 123308, 3d Khoroshevskaya str., 2/1, Moscow, Russia RU-CENTER regular mail: 125315, Leningradsky prospekt, 74, bldg. 4, Moscow, Russia
In the event you choose to send via email, please ensure that all Digital ID document copies are submitted in one of the following formats: "jpg", "png", "gif" or "pdf" format.
Until the domain owner has been verified, the WHOIS output will contain the following line:
state: REGISTERED, DELEGATED, UNVERIFIED
After the successful verification the domain owner will receive an email and the state in the WHOIS will change to:
state: REGISTERED, DELEGATED, VERIFIED
Example request email to the registry:

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 short time. As soon as the restore has been completed by the registry, the domain will get assigned to your account with the original domain data.
