The following requirements for registrants outside China are effective as of Monday, September 3, 2012:

  • For individuals outside of China:
    • Applicants need to submit a scan or photo copy of an official document that could prove the identity of the registrant: CNNIC is only accepting passports 2019/11. All documents provided as a proof of identity must feature the name of the registrant.
    • A signed Letter of Commitment is no longer required!
  • For companies and organizations outside of China:
    • Applicants need to submit a scan or photo copy of their business license / business certificate or an excerpt from the commercial register
    • The contact ID (Handle) needs to provide a contact name for the responsible person in the company/organization. A copy of passport or ID is not required.

  • For new registrations: Register [domain name] documents, e.g. "Register example.cn documents"

  • Once you enter the order in the system, you need to send an email to cn-audit@rrpproxy.net to let them know you have done so (you can send one email with a list of the registrations you submitted.

  • Applicants must provide authentic, accurate and complete documentation
  • Applicants must confirm to have read and understood CNNIC's registration rules and policies
  • Applicants must adhere to all policies governing the contents of the website(s) under the domain name
  • In case the domain name is used for a website where the webserver is located in mainland China, a valid ICP number must be obtained from MIIT and provided to CNNIC through registrar (only available if registrant has an office in China)
  • Applicants must accept full responsibility for the suspension of the domain name or any consequences caused by violations of the applicants commitments, and understand that CNNIC and the registrar undertake no responsibility in the event that it needs to interrupt the usage of the domain name.
