Transfers a domain from another registrar to Amazon Route 53.
For more information about transferring domains, see the following topics:
For transfer requirements, a detailed procedure, and information about viewing the status of a domain that you're transferring to Route 53, see Transferring Registration for a Domain to Amazon Route 53 in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide.
For information about how to transfer a domain from one Amazon Web Services account to another, see TransferDomainToAnotherAwsAccount.
For information about how to transfer a domain to another domain registrar, see Transferring a Domain from Amazon Route 53 to Another Registrar in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide.
During the transfer of any country code top-level domains (ccTLDs) to Route 53, except for .cc and .tv, updates to the owner contact are ignored and the owner contact data from the registry is used. You can update the owner contact after the transfer is complete. For more information, see UpdateDomainContact.
If the registrar for your domain is also the DNS service provider for the domain, we highly recommend that you transfer your DNS service to Route 53 or to another DNS service provider before you transfer your registration. Some registrars provide free DNS service when you purchase a domain registration. When you transfer the registration, the previous registrar will not renew your domain registration and could end your DNS service at any time.
If the registrar for your domain is also the DNS service provider for the domain and you don't transfer DNS service to another provider, your website, email, and the web applications associated with the domain might become unavailable.
If the transfer is successful, this method returns an operation ID that you can use to track the progress and completion of the action. If the transfer doesn't complete successfully, the domain registrant will be notified by email.
For .NET Core this operation is only available in asynchronous form. Please refer to TransferDomainAsync.
