Suspend/Unsuspend a Domain Name

Order Suspension is a useful feature available to Resellers of Whois.com Pte Ltd. In this status, the Order remains in the database but is inactive and the functionality associated with it can not be used. Placing a Domain Name Registration Order under Suspension has the following effects:

  • Any website/email service associated with the domain name would stop functioning.
     
  • The Contact Details and Name Servers of such a domain name can not be modified in this state.
     
  • A Transfer [Away] Request for this domain name to another Registrar will fail at the Registry itself and will not be allowed.
     
  • Domain name Renewal/Deletion would not be possible.
     
  • An internal Move of this domain name (to another Customer Account) would not be possible in this state.
IMPORTANT
  • Whois.com Pte Ltd does not support the Suspension / Unsuspension feature for domain names under the following extensions:
    • .EU (Domain name Suspension not supported by the Registry)
    • .UK (Domain name Suspension not supported by the Registry)
