Registration Restrictions

Registrants of TW Domains must comply to the General Terms and Conditions of .TW Domains:

• Supervision and Guidance Regulation for Internet Protocol (IP) Address and Domain Name Registration and Management Services currently at twnic's site.
• Guidelines for Administration of Domain Name Registration currently at twnic's site.

1 & 2 Character domains

The registry previously allowed 1 & 2-character registrations but not any longer. We can accept transfers of these domains, but they cannot be registered, even if returned as available.

IDN Character Sets

The registry accepts the following character sets for IDN registrations.

• Chinese
• Chinese (Traditional)
• French
• German
• Japanese

Transfer

• A .TW Domain Transfer must be initiated with an "Authorisation Code", which can be obtained from the current registrar through the owner or Admin-C of the domain.
• Ensure that your respective domain does not have a lock-status (REGISTRAR-LOCK or HOLD). This can be seen in the WHOIS. If the domain is locked, then the owner can demand that this be unlocked.
• Initiate the transfer on time and not just shortly before the domain expires.
• Please ensure that the domain is older than 60 days otherwise the transfer will be denied.
• Please note that you need a signed request from the registrant before you initiate the transfer.

The transfer of a .TW domain will usually take 5-7 working days.
