At the
next meeting of the Board of the Coordination Center of the national domain of the Internet, issues of registering domain names with Cyrillic characters, improving the reliability of the registration system, as well as proposals for changing regulatory documents in connection with the introduction of the DRTP protocol were discussed.
Based on the results of the discussion, a draft
“Rules for the registration of domain names” was adopted, as well as
“Regulations on the priority registration of Russian-language domain names in the RU domain” , prepared by the working group. The documents will take effect on the basis of a separate decision on the start of registration of Cyrillic domain names. This decision can be made as soon as possible.
“The regulation on the priority registration of Russian-language domain names in the RU domain” (document index RU-20) is an addition to the basic rules for registration (RU-2). It is indicated that for each Russian-language domain name information is entered in the registry about the name itself, as well as its representation. At the same time, on the root DNS servers of the domain .ru, the entry is made not for the domain name itself, but for its presentation.
Russian domain names can be registered in
priority order for the two categories of users listed below.

1. For owners of registered trademarks. They must provide a notarized copy of the trademark registration certificate.
2. For founders of the media registered by the Press. You must provide a notarized copy of the media registration certificate.
A registered domain name, with or without the “.ru” ending, should reproduce the verbal designation registered as a trademark or mass media, namely, coincide with it in writing, if the verbal designation is single-word, or coincide with it in writing when removing spaces or replacing spaces with hyphens if the verbal notation is verbose.
