.BR

With Brazil being the largest country in South America, and the fifth-largest country in terms of population and size, it doesn't come as a surprise that .BR is consistently in the top 10 largest ccTLDs (currently in position #8). .COM.BR is the most commonly used TLD under the .BR portfolio. Mainly dedicated to companies and commercial activities, .COM.BR is restricted to local citizens and legal entities that are registered in Brazil. As it is not possible to register directly under .BR, .COM.BR is most commonly used in Brazil.

API

Domain Registration

Domains can be registered with the API AddDomain command.

command = AddDomain
domain  = (DOMAIN)

REQUIRED

ownercontact0 = (CONTACT)
admincontact0 = (CONTACT)
techcontact0 = (CONTACT)

OPTIONAL

auth = <TEXT> | <NULL>
X-BR-ACCEPT-TRUSTEE-TAC = 0 | 1
X-BR-REGISTER-NUMBER = <TEXT> | <NULL>
The X-BR-REGISTER-NUMBER parameter is mandatory for the registration of a .com.br domain without trustee service. If you register the domain without trustee service, you have to state a billing contact with a valid Brazilian address.

In this field you can use CPF or CNPJ numbers. These are identification numbers issued by the Department of Federal Revenue of Brazil for tax purposes.

In case the Trustee service is used, please note the following:

  • The validation process by the trustee can take between one and three days
  • The trustee service is NOT available for .BLOG.BR / ORG.BR domain names


Domain Transfer

The transfer has to be initiated by the gaining registrar and can be requested with the API TransferDomain command.
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.

TLD specific

Addons

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.

Please do not initiate a restore directly at the registry (e.g. using the registrar webinterface). All restore operations must be performed through our system.
