.DESI Registry operator has terminated their ICANN Registry Agreement. Due to this, ICANN has initiated the Emergency Backend Registry Operator (EBERO) process; to fail over the .DESI top-level domain from CentralNic Registry to Nominet until a new permanent Registry Operator has been identified.

Please note that you won’t be able to currently manage your .DESI domains until ICANN appoints a new Registry Operator for .DESI TLD.

Impact:

• Domains will not expire but retain their existing expiry dates.
• Domains will not auto-renew.
• It is not possible to: CREATE a new domain. DELETE an existing domain. RENEW an existing domain. TRANSFER an existing domain between registrars.
