Policy Development Process to Review the Transfer Policy
Status: Active
Issue Areas: Tranfer Policy
Date Established: February 20, 2021
Charter: [ WG Charter]
Workspace: [ Community Wiki]

The Policy Development Process to review Transfer Policy (PDPRTP) is a GNSO PDP initiated by the GNSO Council on February 18, 2021.[1]

Focus and Charter Questions

The PDP Charter specifies that the Working Group "is to conduct a review of the Transfer Policy and determine if changes to the policy are needed to improve the ease, security, and efficacy of inter-registrar and inter-registrant transfers." [2] The Final Issue Report identified questions and issues related to eight topics:

  1. Gaining & Losing Registrar Form of Authorization (“FOA”);
  2. AuthInfo Code Management;
  3. Change of Registrant;
  4. Transfer Emergency Action Contact (“TEAC”);
  5. Transfer Dispute Resolution Policy (“TDRP”);
  6. Reversing/NACKing Transfers;
  7. ICANN-Approved Transfers; and
  8. Recommendation 27 of the Expedited Policy Development Process on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data (EPDP), as it relates to FOA, change of registrant, and TDRP proceedings.[3]

The working group divided the work into phases: Phase 1(a) - FOA and AuthInfo Codes, and EPDP Temp Spec Recommendation 27 re: FOA; Phase 1(b) - Change of Registrant and EPDP Temp Spec Recommendation 27 re: change of registrant issues; Phase 2 - Transfer Emergency Action, Reversing Transfers, Denying (NACKing) Transfers, ICANN-Approved Transfers, TDRP, and EPDP Temp Spec Recommendation 27 re: TDRP[4]

History and Work Progress

The Final Issue Report was presented to the GNSO Council in advance of their February council meeting.[5] After initiation of the project at the February council meeting, the GNSO publicly launched the project at ICANN 70 with an introductory session.[6] The session provided an overview of the issue areas, identified ways for community members to participate, and described the composition and sources of the Working Group membership.[7]

Initial Report & Public Comment

The working group intends to publish its Initial Report in June 2022.[8]
