Explanation of domain statuses

If you use the Previder Portal to request and manage domains, you will see the status of the domain under the heading “status”. On this page, you can read what the statuses mean.

Client statuses

CLIENT_TRANSFER_PROHIBITED

This domain cannot be transferred to another registrar.

CLIENT_RENEW_PROHIBITED

This domain cannot be renewed.

CLIENT_UPDATE_PROHIBITED

This domain on which the status is set cannot be updated.

CLIENT_DELETE_PROHIBITED

This means that the domain cannot be terminated.

CLIENT_HOLD

This domain does not resolve; the domain name is not activated in the DNS.

Registrar statuses

Most registrar statuses are due to misuse of a domain. Contact the Support Desk to check whether it is possible to remove the status.

The statuses are similar to those of client, but start with “REGISTRAR”.

Server statuses

All statuses in the server category are set by the domain registry issuing the domain. Most server statuses are due to abuse of a domain. Contact the Support Desk to check whether it is possible to remove the status.

Statuses are the same as client, but start with “SERVER”.
