REAL NAME VERIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
New Registrations
All new domain transactions will need to have Registrant Contact IDs validated in the Registry's RNV database. Until they are, the domain will be placed on Serverhold. If the domain is validated, the domain will be live and usable. If a Registrant Contact ID has not passed RNV, the domain name will fail. If you need to validate a contact, please email support@encirca.com
Renewals
The renewal of registered domain names that have a Registrant Contact ID that has not passed RNV is prohibited. Under the new guidelines, currently registered domain names that have a Registrant Contact ID that has not passed RNV will not be renewed.
