Buyer or Seller initiates a transfer request with AFRINIC

Either the Buyer or Seller may initiate a transfer request with AFRINIC, although it is generally done by the Seller. Sellers who are AFRINIC members will do this through their MyAFRINIC portal while nonmember Legacy holders can register and initiate transfers as well. Buyers must be registered AFRINIC members and if they purchase addresses from Legacy holders, those addresses will lose their Legacy status after transfer.
