    Knowledge base Recovering a domain name after a theft or loss of ownership

      Recovering a domain name after a theft or loss of ownership

      This guide outlines possible solutions for recovering an expired or stolen domain name, a complex process that depends on the specific circumstances of each case.

      You need to make sure beforehand that it is not simply in a period of redemption.


      Contact the current domain name holder

      If the domain name is registered to another person or entity, you can try to contact them directly to discuss possible restitution of the domain name. This may involve negotiating with the current holder and reaching an amicable agreement. However, this can be difficult if the current holder is unwilling to cooperate or if you are unable to contact them.

      Use ICANN mediation or arbitration services

      The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) offers mediation and arbitration services to resolve domain name disputes. You can submit a complaint to ICANN if you believe you have legitimate rights to the domain name in question. ICANN will review the evidence presented by the parties and make a decision based on ICANN policies. However, please note that this can be a lengthy and costly process.

      The rules and procedures for recovering an expired or stolen domain name may vary depending on jurisdiction and ICANN policies. It is recommended to consult ICANN's specific policies as well as local laws and regulations to understand the options available in your particular situation. It may also be helpful to consult a lawyer specializing in domain name law for appropriate legal advice.

      Resort to legal proceedings

      If you believe the domain name has been stolen or your rights have been violated, you may consider taking legal action against the current holder in the appropriate courts. This may involve filing a lawsuit and presenting evidence in court to obtain a judicial decision. Legal proceedings can also be costly and time-consuming.

      Monitor expired domain name auctions

      If the domain name has expired and is being auctioned, you can try to purchase it at these auctions. Some expired domain names are auctioned on specialized platforms, and you can participate in these auctions to try to recover the domain name.
