Requirements
Who can register a .ro?
Additional details for registration
- If you register as a company or organisation, you provide your registration number in the trade register. This can be a trade register in any country.
- As a company, you also provide your VAT number or tax number. A VAT number is only required if you're based in an EU country.
- If you register as an individual, you provide the number of a valid passport or identity card.
Documents
- For a change of registrant, the new registrant sends in a copy of an identity document, preferably a passport. If the new registrant is a company, a proof of the company's registration or incorporation is required instead.
- The current registrant signs a change of registrant form. You upload that form together with a copy of the current registrant's identity document, plus a company document if the current registrant is a company.
Transfer
Transferring a .ro
- To transfer a domain to another registrar, you need a transfer code. As the registrant, you request it yourself from the registry ROTLD.
The transfer code
- Only the registrant can request the transfer code, via their own account on the registry ROTLD's website.
- There, choose the option to request an authorisation key for the domain transfer.

Change of registrant
- A change of registrant isn't processed immediately and takes some time.
- After a successful change of registrant, the registration period starts again. The domain's remaining term is lost.
- First, the current registrant requests an authorisation key for the change of registrant via their account with the registry ROTLD. The key is sent by email to the registrant's email address.
- Then you pass the password and the authorisation key on to WebOké. WebOké will then start the change of registrant for you.
- The registry sends a form to the current registrant's email address. They must sign it, date it and stamp it if the company has a stamp.
- You upload the signed form and the documents via the link in that email. The link expires 10 days after you receive the email.
- Let WebOké know once you've uploaded the documents, so the request can proceed.
- You can't change the registrant's name or organisation with a regular contact details update. That requires a change of registrant.
- If you only want to change the registrant's email address, follow the registry ROTLD's procedure for that.
