Domain Name Registration Agreement

Registrar/Reseller: [Company Name] · Registrant (Customer): [Name] · Domain(s): [domain.com] · Date: [Date]

1. Registration Services

Registrar will register and manage the domain name(s) listed above on Registrant's behalf, for the term selected: [Number] year(s), beginning [Date].

2. Fees

Registration fee: [Amount] per domain, per year, renewable at [Renewal price] unless cancelled. [Any additional services — WHOIS privacy, DNS management — priced separately.]

3. Registrant's Responsibilities

Registrant is responsible for keeping contact information current, renewing before expiration to avoid losing the domain, and complying with the applicable domain registry's policies (e.g. ICANN rules).

4. Ownership

Registrant, not Registrar, is the legal owner ("registrant of record") of the domain name, subject to compliance with registry rules and payment of applicable fees.

5. Auto-Renewal

[ ] This registration auto-renews unless cancelled by Registrant at least [Period] before expiration. [ ] This registration does NOT auto-renew; Registrant must manually renew before expiration.

6. Transfer

Registrant may transfer the domain to another registrar, subject to obtaining the transfer authorization code and any applicable registry lock/transfer restrictions.

7. Dispute Policy

Domain disputes are subject to the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP) or applicable registry dispute policy.


Registrar/Reseller: ______________________ Date: ____________ Registrant: ______________________ Date: ____________

*Confirming whether auto-renewal is on or off (Section 5) — and setting a calendar reminder regardless — matters because a lapsed domain can be picked up by someone else within days of expiring, and recovering a domain that's already been re-registered by another party is often difficult or impossible.*

Is this legal advice?

No. This is a general-purpose starting structure, not advice for your specific situation. Business agreements can hinge on details — state of formation, industry-specific regulation, how a dispute would actually play out — that a template can't account for. Have a business attorney review anything that involves real money or real risk before you rely on it.

Yes — edit directly on the page, adjust any section or clause, and re-fill the 8 placeholder fields to match your situation before downloading a PDF. It's a starting structure, not a rigid script.
