hers a question, after intially registering a name you must wait 60 days to transfer it to another acct etccc. once transfered is does a new 60day period begin or does it apply to only the first registration??

Gene

The 60-day waiting period applies ANY time a change is made to your WHOIS info. Each time you make a change, now or in the future, it resets the 60-day clock.

thnx for info

does this also apply to push transactions?

slider

No, though the registrar may have their own rules about this. For example, eNom has a 7-day waiting period between pushing domains.

thanks slider

On pushes at GoDaddy there does not appear to be any waiting time between registering a domain and being able to push the domain to another account. Thanks GoDaddy.

by another acct; do you mean another regstar or does the buyer also have a godaddy acct.
i looked at icann site didnt find anything about push
I read this about the rules.

e) Questions regarding denying transfers because they are within 60 days of a
previous transfer (#9). This can be problematic because it may not always be
possible for the registrar to tell whether a transfer has occurred in this time
period. Also, there is nothing in the policy that requires registrars to deny
transfer requests for this reason, but they may deny an incoming request for this
reason should they choose to do so. ICANN has received a few complaints from
registrants that the 60 day period was too long, when they had legitimately
bought or taken over a previously-transferred domain name, but could not move
it to their registrar of choice for nearly two months following the transaction.
(Note that the policy says that a lesser period can be determined.).
in the clarification and definition of terms in the list, as described above. ICANN staff
recommends consideration by the GNSO of the following:
�� Inclusion of more precise guidelines in the policy in order to clarify terms and
reduce confusion.
�� Requirement, modification or elimination of the 60 day post-transfer period.

"Pushing" is the term for moving a domain from one account to the other at the same registrar. To find rules about this you'd have to go to the specific registrar.
