Requirements
Who can register a .ею?
- You can register a .ею domain name if your company has its registered office, central administration or principal place of business in the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway.
- Organisations established in the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway can register, without prejudice to national law.
- Individuals who live in the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway can register.
- If you're a national of a country in the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway, you can register, wherever you live.
- If you don't fall into any of these groups, you can use a trustee service.
- There's also a service where a third party registers the domain at your request and lets you use it. Please note: that third party is then the actual owner, with all the rights that come with it.
Additional details for registration
- The registrant's email address can't contain the domain name you're registering. So for domeinnaam..ею, you can't use an address such as info@domeinnaam..ею.
- If you live outside the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway but are a national of one of those countries, you state your nationality to show that you're eligible to register.
- You can choose a language in which your registrant details are shown in the EURid WHOIS. The default is English.
Good to know when registering
- EURid can delay the activation of a new domain name. This can happen as soon as nameservers are set for the first time, either at registration or later.
- A system developed by KU Leuven checks things such as the registrant details, the nameservers used and reports of abuse. If there's any doubt, you'll receive a verification email as the registrant. EURid makes the final decision.
- While activation is delayed, the domain is temporarily inactive: your website and email won't work. Any changes you make during that period only become visible after activation.
Transfer
Transferring a .ею
- First request the transfer code from your current registrar. Without that code, the transfer can't start.
- When you transfer a domain, the registrant's details must be sent along with it.
- If a .ею domain has been cancelled at another registrar and is in quarantine, you can restore it and transfer it to WebOké at the same time.
The transfer code
- The transfer code consists of 16 letters and numbers in four groups separated by hyphens, such as XXXX-AAAA-BBBB-CCCC. You need the full code.
- The code is valid for 40 days after it's issued, or until it's used if that happens sooner.
- No transfer code is issued for domain names that are blocked, reserved, revoked or protected with a registry lock.
Owner
Change of registrant
Change of registrant
- If you want to change the registrant's name or organisation, a change of registrant is required. This can't be done through a regular change of contact details.
- If the new registrant doesn't meet the requirements because they're based outside the EU, a trustee service is available.
- If the new registrant lives outside the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway but is a national of one of those countries, they can use their nationality to show that they're eligible to register.
- A change of registrant isn't possible while the domain is in quarantine.
Renewal, cancellation and quarantine
- A cancelled .ею domain first goes into quarantine and can be restored from there.
- If the domain is in quarantine at another registrar, you can restore it and transfer it to WebOké at the same time.
- You can't restore a domain from quarantine and put it in the name of a different registrant at the same time.
