This policy describes the transfer of Internet number resources between a resource holder within the RIPE NCC service region and a resource holder of another Regional Internet Registry (RIR).
This policy outlines the rules for Internet number resource transfers between the RIPE NCC and other RIR service regions.
1.1 Scope
The policy for transferring Internet number resources to or from the RIPE NCC service region will be general for any resource. A transfer policy must exist for each type of Internet number resource within the RIPE NCC service region. With this policy, legacy resources can be transferred to or from the RIPE NCC service region, in spite of the fact there is there is no specific transfer policy for them.
The RIPE NCC shall accept all transfers of Internet number resources to its service region, provided they comply with the policies relating to transfers within its service region.
When Internet number resources are transferred from another RIR, the RIPE NCC will work with the resource holder to fulfil any requirements of the sending RIR.
When transferring Internet number resources to another RIR, the RIPE NCC will follow the transfer policies that apply within its own service region. The RIPE NCC will also comply with the commitments imposed by the receiving RIR, in order to facilitate the transfer.
