Requirements
Who can register a .org.ru?
- The registrant of a .org.ru domain must prove their identity with documents. This also applies to existing registrations.
- If you don't provide the requested documents to the registry, your domain may be deleted.
- If you register in the name of an organisation, a legal entity must be specified as the organisation.
- Abbreviated names aren't allowed. You must provide your full first name and surname.
Additional details for registration
- As a private individual, you provide your date of birth and your passport number.
- If your name appears in Cyrillic script on your identity document, you also provide your first name, surname and any middle name in Cyrillic. Your regular contact details remain in Latin script.
- If your organisation is based in the Russian Federation, you'll need the Russian taxpayer identification number and the Russian tax registration reason code.
- If the organisation name appears in Cyrillic script on the documents, you also provide that name in Cyrillic, using at least two words.
- You must provide a valid, working email address. The registry checks this.
Documents
- For a company or other legal entity, you send in a copy of official proof of registration, such as an extract from the business register. You may black out the personal details of directors and shareholders.
- As a private individual or sole trader, you send in a copy of your passport.
- The documents must be clearly legible, and your personal details and the date of issue must be clearly visible.
- You may provide the documents in your own language. No translation is needed.
- You provide the documents to WebOké as a PDF. We forward them to the registry.
- Once a registrant has been approved, they don't need to be checked again.
Good to know when registering
- After registering, you must provide the identity documents within three working days at the latest.
- Until the registry has approved the registrant, the registration remains pending.
- You'll be notified when the registry has approved or rejected the registrant check.
Transfer
Transferring a .org.ru
- You don't need any documents to transfer a domain to WebOké. The transfer is done using the transfer code.
- The registrant details for the transfer must exactly match the current registrant details. Otherwise, the transfer will fail.
- You can't change the registrant during a transfer. Do this separately, before or after the transfer.
- If you want to transfer your domain to another registrar, you request the transfer code yourself. You do this using the registrant account for your domain.
The transfer code
- You need a transfer code to transfer a domain.
- You request the transfer code by logging in with your domain's registrant number and the associated password. You then choose to transfer to another registrar.
- If you've lost the password, you can request it again. For security reasons, only the registrant receives the password, by email or via an official request.
- When making the request, choose to receive the transfer code by email. Otherwise, you may have to collect the code in person at an office in Moscow.
- Your domain's status must be verified. If the domain hasn't been verified yet, you can't request a transfer code.
