**Quick answer — How do I transfer a .nl domain?**

To transfer a .nl, ask your current registrar for the transfer token; it must give it within 5 days. TransferOffshore sends the token to SIDN, and the domain moves immediately. We sell .nl only with Domain protection, so SIDN receives our company's details. As of 19 October 2026, the .nl transfer costs **$37.99**, billed once, paid in crypto.

> **.nl comes with Domain protection** We sell .nl only with Domain protection: the registry receives the details of DomaineGoat LLC, not yours. The transfer and the change of registrant go in the same order. Price: $8.99 for the extension plus $29 a year, so $37.99. Once the transfer completes, the time already paid at the old registrar is billed pro rata for Domain protection.

[With Domain protection](https://transferoffshore.com/domain-protection/): this extension is sold only with Domain protection, because its registry needs a name and address; the registry and WHOIS show DomaineGoat LLC, never you. The price shown includes the $29/year for it.

## What happens when a .nl domain changes registrar?

SIDN, the Dutch registry, calls the code a transfer token. Your current registrar must give it to you within five days of your request. If it does not, SIDN can supply the token itself.

Once the new registrar submits the token, SIDN moves the domain immediately. There is no waiting window, no approval step at the losing registrar, and no lock after registration that we could find.

Billing is per period at registrar level. Registrar notes say a .nl renews on transfer, with a default of one year; periods of one month or three months also exist.

SIDN gives holders outside the Netherlands a SIDN domicile address, according to our extension data. With [Domain protection](https://transferoffshore.com/domain-protection/), the holder is DomaineGoat LLC anyway. The transfer and the change of registrant are handled in the same order.

## What should you check before moving a .nl domain?

- Ask for the token in writing and note the date. The 5-day deadline runs from your request.
- Prepare DNS first: the move is immediate.
- Check whether DNSSEC is on. If you change nameservers, update the keys in the same step.
- Order it in the transfer form like any other name: the line is set to Domain protection automatically.

## What does a .nl transfer cost?

$37.99 for the .nl transfer, then $37.99/year to renew ([all prices](https://transferoffshore.com/pricing/)). That total is the .nl price plus Domain protection at $29 a year. Registrar notes say the term renews on transfer.

## Who uses .nl domains?

Dutch companies, shops and sites aimed at Dutch speakers use .nl. Tip: if your registrar is slow with the token, remind it of SIDN's 5-day rule. SIDN can step in if the registrar stays silent.

## .nl transfer questions

### My registrar will not send the .nl token. What now?

Your registrar must give you the token within five days of your request, according to SIDN. If it does not, SIDN can supply the token. Keep the date of your request as evidence.

### How long does a .nl transfer take?

SIDN moves the domain immediately once a valid token is submitted. On our side, the request goes out after your payment is credited. Because nothing waits for days, have your DNS ready before you submit.

### Who appears as the holder of my .nl after the transfer?

DomaineGoat LLC, because TransferOffshore sells .nl only with Domain protection. SIDN and the public record show our company, never you. You stay the beneficial owner and can get the token to leave whenever you want.
