5.8.2. Transfer contact

A contact transfer command is used to take over sponsorship of a contact.

An AuthInfo of the contact (in role of transfer password) must be provided for authorization.

A new AuthInfo is generated for the contact by the server after a successful transfer.

The contact transfer command is a transfer element in the contact namespace (http://www.nic.cz/xml/epp/contact-1.6).

The command must be contained in the <transfer> command type. The command type must specify the request operation (@op = 'request').

5.8.2.1. Command element structure

The <contact:transfer> element must declare the contact namespace and schema and it must contain the following child elements:

  • <contact:id> (1) – the contact handle as fredcom:objIDType,

  • <contact:authInfo> (1) – the authorization information (AuthInfo for short, in role of transfer password) as fredcom:authInfoType.
