From April 1, 2010, all domains in the RU zone with unconfirmed documented owners become “UNVERIFIED”. This applies to all domains, including those registered before October 1, that is, before the entry into force of the new rules.
Mandatory identification of RU domain buyers was approved under the new
Rules for registering domain names in the RU domain in July 2009 and introduced on October 1, 2009. “New requirements can be directed against cybersquatters that capture domains for resale. Now, before selling the domain name, they will have to provide identification data, ”
explains Finam analyst Tatyana Menkova.
Registrar at any time may request from the domain owner the necessary documents to verify identity. If the domain is in the “VERIFIED” status, then ten days give it, if “UNVERIFIED” - only three days. Upon expiration of the domain delegation is suspended.
