Change of contact for a .es domain

As we mentioned in the manual Change domain contact, modifying the holder / owner of a .ES domain is a little different from the other domains, since it cannot be changed from SWPanel because it requires a special procedure with NIC.es. In the following manual we will explain step by step how to modify the owner of a .es domain.

We will access ESNIC to change the domain contact. We will need the user (the user format is AAAA0-ESNIC-F0), the password and the verification code that we will receive by e-mail to the mailbox associated to the account.

If you have not registered before in Dominios.es, you must click on "https://www.nic.es/sgnd/contacto/publicAltaContactoInicializar.action" y dar de alta vuestro dominio.

In the side menu we will click on "Domain Transfer Request ". We will fill in the domain data and also the data of the new Registrant and PCA by means of its identifier.

If the new owner does not have a Nic-Handle, you must create a Nic-Handle for the new contact.

Next, we will have to, either by means of a DNI/Electronic Certificate or by means of a photocopy of the DNI (it must be of type image that must not exceed 600px of width), to finalize with the processing of the request.

Nic.es will ask the current owner or the administrative contact for acceptance by sending an email to both contacts.

When accepting the transmission, we will be redirected to the ESNIC web page to continue with the process. We will be asked again if we want to accept the transmission:

We must also pay attention to the part of "Registrar Agent ". If we do not specify SERVEISWEB the domain will be registered by ESNIC and will disappear from your SWPanel.

Finally, we will be able to specify which Nameservers we want to configure once the transfer is done:

We will accept again by means of a DNI/Electronic Certificate or by means of a photocopy of the DNI (it must be of type image that must not exceed 600px wide).

Finally, and if everything has gone well, you will see the following window where it is indicated that the change of ownership request will be carried out, which ESNIC will review and if everything is correct it will be accepted.

The acceptance period can take up to 10 days to be completed. If not accepted within 10 days, the application will be automatically cancelled.
