You can choose Scheduled instead of Immediate when starting an eligible incoming transfer, then set when it should begin. The domain page shows the scheduled time and lets you move or cancel the transfer before the cutoff.

A domain's DNS records page now has Change TTLs, which sets one TTL for every record in its hosted zone. Use it to lower caching time before a planned migration, then raise it again after the new setup is working.

The new command menu lets you search for a domain or contact and jump directly to it. It also offers common destinations such as domain registration, portfolio overview, upcoming invoices, account preferences, and team switching.

Domain Chief's refreshed interface now supports dark mode across the dashboard, domain pages, contacts, DNS records, and settings. The new navigation follows the same theme, making it easier to work in your preferred appearance.

The hosted DNS file importer now accepts CSV exports alongside BIND zone files. Open a domain's DNS records, choose Import, and upload a CSV with the record names, types, and values.

When transferring a domain that will keep custom nameservers, you can now use Fill from current to retrieve its existing DNSSEC keys into the transfer form. Review the keys before submitting so the registry can keep the DNSSEC delegation aligned with the current DNS provider.

You can now edit custom metadata on domains, contacts, and hosted DNS records in Domain Chief. The tag beside a domain name is also a quick way to add or change its tag, which you can use to filter the domain list.

Integrations can now retry a failed authorization-code transfer through the Domain Chief API after the customer supplies a corrected code. The request returns when the retry is accepted; follow the domain status to see whether the registry completes it.

New teams with a United Kingdom registrant or company contact can now complete Domain Chief onboarding using a GB address. Choose United Kingdom when setting up the team's first contact, then verify its email to continue to domain management.

Domain Chief now offers an MCP server for compatible AI clients. Connect at https://domain.chief.app/mcp, sign in with your Chief account, and approve the scopes needed to inspect domains, contacts, and TLDs or manage hosted DNS, redirects, and domain settings.

You can now complete registration or incoming transfer for lower-priced premium domains in Domain Chief. For teams without broader premium access, both the operation price and renewal price must be below €25; higher-priced names still require assistance.

The Dashboard now shows a notice when your team has invoices awaiting payment. Select View invoices to open them and settle outstanding charges.

The DNS zone file importer now detects whether hostnames use fully qualified names with trailing dots or flat names without them, so you can upload exports in either format without rewriting their hostname values. Zone files containing ALIAS records are supported too.

Integrations can initiate an outgoing IPS-tag transfer for an eligible .uk family domain with POST /api/v1/domains/{domainNameOrId}/transfer/push. Send the receiving registrar's tag as recipient; the API accepts the request for asynchronous processing and returns the updated domain.

For eligible .uk family domains, open Push Transfer on the domain page, unlock the domain if prompted, and enter the receiving registrar's IPS tag. Domain Chief shows when a newly registered domain is still in its 30-day transfer lock and tracks the pending request.

Domain search now lets you hide unavailable names and sort results by popularity, price, or alphabetically. Use the Hide unavailable switch and Sort menu when comparing names to register.

Set a domain's metadata.tag through the API to show a tag label in Domain Chief. You can then filter the Domains list by tag or select a tag to find other domains with the same value.

When you update a domain through the API, you can now supply only the contact roles you want to change. For example, send a new owner handle and leave the other roles out; their existing contacts remain assigned.

You can now register eligible .us domains by adding the required Nexus Category and Applicant Purpose to the owner contact. Enter these values in the contact editor before registering, or send them as contact extension_data through the API.

The Dashboard now shows your team's next upcoming invoice, including its expected date and estimated total. Open the invoice preview from the card to review the charges, even when the next invoice falls in a later month.
