How do I renew a .ES domain?
.ES domains can only be renewed with auto-renewal. Keep auto-renewal on and a valid payment method on file.
How do I transfer a .ES domain to DNSimple?
A .ES transfer needs an authorization code. Ask your current registrar for it. The registry generates the code, and it is valid for 10 days.
After you start the transfer, the domain’s administrative contact receives an email from the registry with an approval link.
Warning
The administrative contact has 10 days to approve the transfer. If it is not approved by then, the transfer is canceled.
The approval email goes to the contact’s email address at the registry, which may be different from your DNSimple account email. If you cannot read it, update the address at your current registrar before you start the transfer. If you do not see the email, check your spam or junk folder.
A transfer does not renew a .ES domain.
If you do not receive the approval email, the link does not work, or you need any help with your domain transfer, contact support.
How do I change the registrant of a .ES domain?
The registry does not allow registrars to change the registrant’s contact details. The registrant must log in to the .ES registry with their NIC handle, which appears in the WHOIS information, to make the change. The registrant’s and administrative contact’s email addresses can only be changed by those contacts at the registry.
