Name transfer timeframe?

[mulligan]

Does anybdy know what the timeframe for internal transfers with a registrar is?
To transfer from ane account at, say, Domainsite to another persons account at Domainsite is there a certain amount of time you have had to own the name before you can pass ownership to another party?

Thanx Guys and Gals...

At least on dynadot and several other registrars i use, as soon as u finish registering a domain you can push it to someone else account.

I "second that" about domainsite

Real time DNS propagnation at DomainSite means that when you change nameservers it is almost instant, and not that half a day delay you often get with lesser registrars.

Yes, these guys think big. I was chatting to the CEO the other day, and he is talking about Escrow with a turn around of 2 hours!

Excellent news! It is about time domain name service providers move out of the dark ages.

Thanks for your input all...

I have found Domainsite to be excellent myself.
Email is answered in almost real time, next best thing to live chat!!
No auto responders there..
Escrow turnaround in 2 hours eh? Good news indeed (Will hopefully be having to utilise that a LOT in the future ;)

Lease transfers within a registrar are genrally instantaneous. The only time they aren't is when it is a name bought at a pre-drop auction - some of the registrars running those scams put a freeze on the name for legal reasons.

The only reason inter-registrar ownership transfers cannot be done immediately is because of the 60 day no-transfer rule which was put in place early on in the ICANN days because they were worried about domain-slamming taking place. It's a rule that's seen it's time and should be removed.

That's as maybe but they still take 5 days!
