ICANN Email Verification

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is the organization responsible for setting the various policies and procedures that govern domain registries for generic top-level domain (gTLD) names. We are bound to them through our Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA), the contract which allows us to be a registrar and sell domains.

More information about ICANN can be found at http://www.icann.org.

On September 1, 2014, ICANN issued a guideline requiring domain providers to validate the contact information of domain owners. This applies to all generic top-level domain (gTLD) and new top-level domain (nTLD) owners.

Each registered domain is required to provide identifying contact information—including the full name, postal address, email address, phone number, etc.—for the registrant (owner), administrator, and billing contacts. This and other details regarding the domain are collectively referred to as "WHOIS data," and it is included on the domain's record in the public WHOIS database. Anyone can query the database for a domain record to find out when it was registered, where its name servers are pointed, who the owner is, and more. Some domain owners choose to block their information from being posted publicly by purchasing Domain Privacy.

The RAA verification email will be sent to you as a domain registrant within 15 days of taking any of the following actions:

* Registering a new generic top-level domain
* Registering a new top-level domain
* Transferring a domain
* Changing your domain contact details

The email contains a verification link that lets you quickly and easily verify your contact details as the legal domain owner, see a sample below

 

Note: Email updates and reminders regarding this verification should be received on days 1, 7, and 14. The domain is suspended pending verification if the action is not completed by day 15. If this occurs, you can contact us at [email protected] to request that the email be resent.
