Yes. Information about who is
responsible for domain names is publicly available to allow rapid resolution
of technical problems and to permit enforcement of consumer protection,
trademark, and other laws. The registrar will make this information available
to the public on a "Whois" site.

Once the listed administrative
or technical contact on the Whois records authorizes the verification request
sent by email, modification usually takes 72 hours for domain propagation
around the world.

You will fill out the same form
except, highlight 'M' for modify rather than 'N' for a new domain. It is
very important that you use the same company name and address on the template
as that which is on file at InterNIC. If the company name differs from that
which is on file, InterNIC will treat the transfer as a new order and will
not allow the transfer to be completed.

Before your domain name becomes
active, you must provide a credit card number or any other form of payment.
This requirement enhances the availability of domain names by preventing
them from being tied up by individuals not intending to pay for registration.

A domain name provides you with
an identity, or address, on the Internet. It helps you to find and to be
found. When a server is searching for something on the World Wide Web, it
looks for a string of digits known as an IP network address, (e.g. 156.130.43.30).
A domain name is the text translation of this IP address, which is easier
to remember than a string of digits. Registering a suitable domain name
on the Internet is the equivalent of registering a company name. Once it
has been registered, no one else can use that name. Because so many companies
have similar names, it is important to register a suitable domain name as
soon as possible.
