Question
According to PIR, .org is an “open and unrestricted” extension: individuals, associations, companies and foundations can register and use it, whatever their country. No non-profit status is required.
Question
PIR offers a WHOIS lookup on its site and an RDAP service; for registrant contact details it points to the registrar’s service. Non-public data is only released on a request based on a legitimate interest.
Question
A .org transfer requires the authorisation code (6 to 16 characters) assigned by the current registrar; according to PIR, it completes within five days. ICANN policy applies: a transfer may be refused within 60 days of creation or of a previous transfer, and one year is added to the expiry, up to 10 years.
.org remains the natural choice for associations, foundations, NGOs, open-source projects and public-interest initiatives. It signals a mission rather than a sales pitch, while staying open to companies that want to protect their name.
