No, there are no rules I am aware of as a domain reseller, but it might differ with some of the new TLDs. It might be worth clarifying with ICANN.

There are somethings to be mindful of.

  • It generally takes 3 - 5 days for a transfer to complete. I would never start a transfer less than a week prior to expiration if I wanted to avoid disruption.

  • many TLDs require renewal on transfer so it can be a good idea to transfer wellnot renew too far in advance of the expiry date unless you are happy to renew and then have to add another year on transfer

  • nameservers can't be updated once a domain transfer has been approved by the registrant.
