Domain Registration Procedures

Pending the accreditation of registrars by the registry operator, currently the registration of domains is carried out by four (4) caretaker registrars/ISPs. These are namely, EPTC, Real Image, Computronics and Posix.

The registration procedure appears below:

1. Registrant puts through a domain request via a local ISP.
2. Local ISP will process request. The processing involves:
   • Confirming domain is available [Currently, no domain reservation]
   • Assist Registrant with filling out form (technical details, etc)
   • Confirming Registrant details
   • Verifying in entity exists locally [No foreign proxies]
   • Receive payment from Registrant
3. Local ISP will forward request to Registry
   • Directly – if they are caretaker Registrar
   • Via a caretaker Registrar otherwise
4. Registry will verify request – if there queries will liaise with Registrar ISP
5. Registry enters domain in Registry.
