Ownership Verification of Domains

BasicsDomain

When registering, transferring, or modifying data for certain domains (e.g., .com or .eu), you may receive an email in English from our registration partner. This email requests verification of your identity as the domain owner by clicking the link provided in the email.

The purpose of this email is to ensure that no changes can be made to the domain without the owner’s knowledge and approval. The email is sent during new registrations, transfers, or data modifications.

Important Notes:

  1. Email Location: These emails often end up in the Spam folder, so they may be overlooked, leading to failed verification.
  2. Verification Failure: If the verification process is not completed, the domain will be suspended.
  3. Restoring Suspended Domains: After suspension, you can resend the email using the button available on the domain page. Completing the verification process will restore the domain, provided the subscription has not expired.

Below is the exact structure and content of the sample email.

  • The first link provides more information about ICANN validation guidelines.
  • The second link contains the General Terms and Conditions.
  • The third link completes the verification process.

Sample Email Content:

Greetings,

 

Recently you registered, transferred or modified the contact information for one or more of your domain names. ICANN, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, requires the validation of your new contact information. You can find further information about ICANN’s validation policy at:

In order to prevent the deactivation of your domains, you must agree to the Registrant Terms and Conditions ( http://www.registrant-verification.net/pdf/Registrant_Agreement_EPAG.pdf ) and validate your contact information by clicking the link below.

If this verification has not completed by [date], all of the domains using your name and this email address will be deactivated. The list at the end of this email contains a full report of all names that are currently undergoing verification.
