.SG Domain Name Renewal

You can renew your Domain Name manually or you can set up Auto-Renewal, which is an optional feature available for all our Domain/Hosting Products and Services.

The Renewal Date depends on whether you manually renew your Domain Name or set it to Auto-Renew. We will attempt Auto-Renewal (7) seven days before its expiry date. If the renewal attempt fails, we re-attempt the Renewal (3) three days before its expiry date.

Should the Auto-Renewal feature fail, you will need to manually renew the Domain to secure continued ownership.

.SG Domain Name Transfer

It takes (7) seven days to complete a Transfer Process of a .SG Domain Name from one registrar to another after registration, and will require an authorisation code upon initiation of Transfer.

.SG Domain Name Privacy

Unfortunately, Domain Privacy Protection is not available for .SG Domain Names.
