How long does DNS propagation take?

How long DNS changes for a domain take to propagate depends on the hosting provider and server settings. New DNS settings should take effect within 24 hours at the latest.
For .si domains, DNS zones are generated every odd hour. During this process, the records on the name servers set for the domain are checked. Arnes.si does this on the following schedule:

  • every 10 minutes for the first 8 hours after the DNS change
  • every hour from 8 to 24 hours after the change
  • once a day after 24 hours

If the new DNS servers meet the technical requirements, a confirmation of successful registration is sent to the technical contact’s email address. If not, they receive a notice of unsuccessful registration once a day until the errors are fixed.
The domain needs the correct DNS servers (usually two). If the domain was hosted with another web hosting provider, the domain’s DNS records must be removed from their DNS server.
You can check the DNS records of a .si domain in the domain registry: Register.si – DNS tab.
The new server will be reachable through the domain once the new DNS servers take effect.
