If registrants wish to maintain the registration for their names, they will need to provide relevant information through a manual Change of Registrant.

Registrants can perform a CoR if they meet section 5.5 of the 2004-01 – Complaints – (Registrant Eligibility) Policy, which states if;

1. There is documentary evidence that, prior to its demise, the registrant agreed to transfer the domain name licence to the entity or individual currently using the domain name; and
2. The transfer meets the requirements to hold the domain name listed in auDA’s Transfers (Change of Registrant) Policy (2011-03).

Please refer to manual Change of Registrant guide for a template that can be used to help you meet these requirements.
