Once the domain is registered
All Belgian domain names registered with us are stored on our international server. Domains registered with us are automatically provided with their own under-construction page - this notifies potential registrants that the name has been acquired and is now registered. The under-construction page is offered free of charge and may be used indefinitely.
It is possible for Web and/or Mail forwarding to be provided for Belgian domains.
Domain transfer/release fees are charged are by a majority of registrars, but 101 Domains make no charge to transfer a domain to another Belgian domain name registrar.
