.SI Domain Policies

.SI is the country code TLD for Slovenia, and is regulated by the Register.si Registry, a part of ARNES (Academic and Research Network of Slovenia).

Registration details

Registration details can be found in the TLD reference chart.

NIS 2 Requirements:

As part of the NIS 2, Registrants must provide up-to-date and accurate contact information to the registrar throughout the domain's lifecycle, including their name, postal address, telephone number, and email address. The email address must be valid and functional. 

If the registrant fails to comply with these requirements, the registry may cancel the domain registration

Registrants will receive a Form of Authorization (FOA) when submitting a Registration request, updating Registrant contact information, or transferring a domain name. The FOA requires registrants to confirm the accuracy and validity of their contact details and to consent to data collection in accordance with the .SI general terms and conditions. Rejecting the FOA or failure to approve the FOA within 7 days will cause the order to fail.

Additionally, annual WHOIS data reminders will be sent to registrants, prompting them to review and update their domain contact information as needed.

Name server & DNS Requirements

In order to activate a .SI domain, you must provide at least two functional nameservers. The nameservers on the domain must be authoritative in the zone file. The SOA of the nameservers must match.

The DNS predelegation checks occur automatically every couple of hours. The domain name will be added to the DNS automatically once the configuration is correct.

Renewals

All .SI domains are set to auto-renew by default.

Explicit renewals are allowed.

To allow a .SI domain to expire, auto-renew must be removed more than 2 days prior to expiry.  Domains that expire will be placed on ClientHold status and later deleted.

Deletion of a .SI domain can be done at any point by contacting OpenSRS. The domain will be placed in Pending Quarantine status for 30 days, after which it will be purged and dropped from the registry database.

Transfers

Authcodes are required for all .SI transfers and can be obtained from the current registrar for the domain. The Authcode expires after 16 days. If you try to use an Authcode after it has expired, you will see a message saying that the Authcode is undefined. A new Authcode can be set using the Update API command.

Changes of ownership

Changing ownership of a .SI domain can be submitted via the Update API command. Ownership changes will not be charged and will not change the expiration date.

Trades are no longer required for .SI domains.
