Re: Contacts after a Domain Transfer

Seth,

The Registrars typically reset the contacts on the domains after the domain transfer.  The contact objects sponsored by the gaining registrar could already exist, so creating new contact objects might not be necessary. A contact transfer could be done, but is not likely.

Subject: [provreg] Contacts after a Domain Transfer

What do registrars typically do about contacts sponsored by a different registrar after a domain transfer? This situation seems undesirable, as it prevents the gaining registrar from updating registrant contact information in the future. Do registrars just make a new contact as a matter of course? Or do they try to transfer over the existing contact? The former seems more likely, as the latter will not work if there are other domains with references to that contact object on the losing registrar.
