APNIC IP Transfer Requirements
APNIC manages IP address allocations in the Asia Pacific region. After running out of IPv4 addresses in 2011, companies now acquire them from the secondary market, requiring an APNIC account, a valid business case, and access to reliable sources of clean, unused IPs.
With the help of a knowledgeable team such as ours, the IPv4 transfer process can be smooth and efficient. Our helpful guide shows why top brands trust IPv4 Connect for their APNIC IP address needs. We provide hands-on support throughout the entire transfer process, from start to finish.
Create an APNIC Online Account
To acquire, manage or buy APNIC IP addresses, you first register for an APNIC online account. APNIC has a 3-step process to create an account and add users to it.
Buyer APNIC Pre-Approval
APNIC requires all clients provide a business case demonstrating how you plan to utilize the requested APNIC IP addresses. They have a 48 hour SLA to respond to any request, so we recommend you submit the correct information to avoid delays.
We have provided 3 different approaches that will get you approved:
Future IP Address Projections
Provide business case demonstrating usage of at least 50% the requested ARIN IP addresses in 2 years.
APNIC will request quarterly projections with actual numbers and the services the IPs will be used for
Current IP Address Utilization
Alternatively, you can demonstrate 75% utilization of the sum of all current ARIN IP address blocks.
APNIC will require a spreadsheet detailing the services the IP’s are used for and the total number of IP’s used
Moving From Carrier Assigned IPv4
In some cases, future use or current utilization can’t justify the need. You might need different /24s for security reasons or to run BGP.
Let APNIC know your need and they should approve
IP Contract Review
The IP contract review process has a necessary pre-condition; pre-approval by APNIC. Pre-approvals must be completed prior to moving forward on IPv4 transfers.
Once pre-approval is completed, the next steps involve a review of the IP address block, blacklist report verification, then examining and signing a purchase agreement.
On our side, we will provide a comprehensive blacklist report to guarantee that the IP addresses are entirely free from any blacklists before you proceed with the purchase.
