The '''Transfer Dispute Resolution Policy''' or '''TDRP''', which was created on 12 November 2004, is a [[DRP]] for use between two registrars engaging in Inter-Registrar domain name transfers.

If a registry operator is chosen, the decision of this registry operator may be appealed by the registrars to an independent dispute resolution provider.<ref>[http://www.webhosting.info/news/1/icann-approves-dispute-resolution-providers-for-tdrp_0504053153.htm | The '''Transfer Dispute Resolution Policy''' or '''TDRP''', which was created on 12 November 2004, is a [[DRP]] for use between two registrars engaging in Inter-Registrar domain name transfers.
