Registries handle the billing and expiry date of a domain differently after a transfer. Apart from a few exceptions, there are four types:

Type 1: free

The expiry date does not change and the transfer is free. After the transfer, we retrieve the registry expiry date and use it in our system.

Type 2: reset

The remaining registration term is lost and a new one-year term starts. The transfer fee is shown on the pricing page in your account.

Type 3: extension

One year is added to the registry expiry date. The fee shown on the pricing page in your account applies. For example, a domain expiring on 18 November 2021 before the transfer will expire on 18 November 2022 afterwards.

Type 4: reset with additional fees

This works like type 2, but the transfer fee is always charged—even if the transfer fails, for example because the administrative contact did not receive or confirm the verification email.
