Additional Verification Requirements for New Domain Registrations
In response to NIS 2 requirements, Internet Stiftelsen has introduced a new process for additional registrant contact data verification in cases where the data is found to have inaccuracies.
Starting January 1st 2025, domains flagged for inaccurate registrant contact data will be placed on “ServerHold” and will not resolve until the contact data has been updated to valid data. These domains will also be unable to renew or transfer to a new registrar while the verification “ServerHold” is in place.
Flagged domains will be required to process an owner change to update to valid registrant contact data. Please ensure you review the registrant contact data for accuracy prior to making the owner change.
If the verification was successful, the “ServerHold” will be removed and the domain will begin to resolve. You will also be able to renew your domain and/or transfer to another registrar.
If the verification is unsuccessful, you will again need to review the data and make adjustments where required. A new owner change must be submitted.
