Route 53 Domain transfer to AWS fails: Number of domains exceeded for the account

0

I'm trying to transfer a domain into AWS Route53 but I get an error stating that the transfer failed: Number of domains exceeded for the account. Go to the Service Quotas console page to request an increase.

When I go to Service Quotas I can not find any service with a quota that matches the total number of domains I already have. Which service quota do I need to increase and how do I do that?

Hello.

I think it's probably the number of domains you can hold in your AWS account.
By default, you should be able to hold up to 20 domains, but in rare cases AWS may set a lower number than what is shown in your quota.

I think it would be a good idea to apply for a quota from the URL below.
https://console.aws.amazon.com/servicequotas/home?region=us-east-1#!/services/route53/quotas

In this case, the problem is on the AWS account side, so I think it would be a good idea to open a case with AWS Support under "Account and billing" and check the details of the required quota.
Inquiries under "Account and billing" can be made free of charge.

  • That is exactly what I was looking for! I've put in a request to increase the limit to a higher value than the current 20. Thank you!
