How long will the DNS records be cleared after a domain is transferred out?


The time it takes for DNS records to be cleared after a domain transfer depends on the policies of the domain registrar. Generally, most registrars will retain DNS records for about 3 days after the domain is transferred out. However, some registrars may stop DNS resolution services immediately after the transfer.


If the domain uses the DNS service provided by the original registrar, it is recommended to change the DNS to that of the new service provider and set up the DNS records before the transfer to avoid resolution issues after the transfer. Additionally, if a third-party DNS service is used, the domain transfer usually will not affect the DNS resolution.


To avoid service interruptions due to DNS clearance, it is advisable to back up the DNS records from the original registrar before the transfer and quickly restore the DNS records with the new registrar.
