.new domains
Information and use of .new domains
.NEW domains provides a namespace dedicated to the generation of actions or creation flows online. What does generation of actions or flow mean? Example: when entering docs.new, the user has to be redirected to a new document creation process.
Registration policy
- Navigation to a .new domain must bring a user directly into the action generation or online creation flow. An exception is provided for services that require a user to be logged in: navigation to a .new domain may bring a logged-out user to a sign up or sign in page. After completing sign in and any other required authentication, the user must be brought directly into the action generation or online creation flow. A user that is already signed in must be brought immediately into the action flow.
- Websites services that require an account in order to access content or undertake activities may register .new domain names, however, upon request access must be provided to Google Registry or its designee free-of-charge for the purpose of verifying compliance with this policy.
- .new domains must be compliant with the Registration Policy within 100 days from the registration date.
- Domain names that do not comply with this requirement may be placed on server hold or deleted for non-compliance.
IMPORTANT: .new is a more secure domain, as HTTPS is required for all websites on .new domains.
You can buy your .new domain now, but for it to work properly in browsers you must configure HTTPS on it.

Transfers
To transfer a .NEW domain, you'll need your current provider to give you the domain's AuthCode or EPP-Key, which proves your ownership of the domain.
Transfers take between 5 and 7 days to complete. Some registrars allow transfers to be accepted manually: contact your current provider to find out if they offer this service; if so, the transfer will be completed the same day.
More information about .NEW domain transfers.
The domains, once the transfer ends, extend their expiration date by one year.
Renewals
You can renew your .NEW domain at any time. This process usually takes between 20 and 30 minutes to complete.
Cancellations
It's possible to request the cancellation of a .NEW domain; you must do so via ticket (support area). Please note that canceling a domain does not entitle you to a refund of the amount paid for it.
DNS modifications
DNS changes are immediate, but please note that they must propagate through the network. This process usually takes between 6 and 12 hours to complete; until then, the domain will keep pointing to the previous DNS servers.
DNSSEC
We allow the usage of DNSSEC on .new domains. Your domain can take advantage of this additional security layer that DNS servers that are compatible with this technology can provide.
More information is available at: DNSSEC: What is it and how does it work.
Domain owner change
Beginning December 1st, 2016, ownership changes of .NEW domains require both the current and the new owner to accept the change. Once the ownership change has been completed, the domain cannot be transferred to another registrar for a period of 60 days.

- A hyphen '-' is not permitted in the first or last position of the domain name.
- Two consecutive hyphens are not permitted in the 3rd and 4th position.
