# Change WHOIS profile for domain

`PUT /api/domains/v1/whois/change`

Change WHOIS contact profile for a domain.

Repoints the given contact roles to a new WHOIS profile and submits the change to the registry.
The profile currently assigned to those roles is resolved automatically;
the request fails if the given roles are not all on the same profile today.

Changing transfer sensitive fields on the owner contact starts an IRTP verification.

The change is processed asynchronously.

Use this endpoint to move a registered domain onto different contact information.
