We would like to advise Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA) 2013, which introduces new obligations on both registrars and resellers. These new obligations will take effect on Monday 23rd June 2014 and incorporates changes that impact all existing and global top level domains.

This validation process only applies to gTLD domains (global Top Level Domains) e.g. .com, .net, .co, .org, .cn, .hk, etc. Visit Wiki for a full list of gTLD Domains.

Owners of these domains will recieve an email as per the below example. The registrant must validate their postal address and contact email address. This validation process only applies to gTLD domains, and must be completed whenever:

  • a new domain is registered;
  • a domain is transferred into TPP Wholesale; or
  • an update is made to contact details on a domain.

What are the new requirements?

Registrants (you) will be sent an email notice (and subsequent reminder notices, if applicable) requesting you validate their email address by clicking on a link within the message. This will be branded with Future IT Hosting header and contact information similar to the example below.

The contact email address must be validated within 15 days or your domain name is at risk of being suspended.


 

Example Email


Postal address validation: Validation will be automatically performed using a third party global address database supplied by Google and a warning will be displayed at the time of entry. If an invalid postal address is submitted, the domain name is at risk of being suspended.

Please refer to ICANN's Registrants' Benefits and Responsibilities document on their websites. Please note that the obligations stated in this notice are not exhaustive.

If you have any concerns, please don't hesitate to contact your account manager on (02) 9523 8838 or email sales@futureithosting.com.au
