Domain transfer/release fees are charged are by a majority of registrars, but BB Online make no charge to transfer a domain to another Isle of Man domain name registrar.

Background

It was in 1996 that the Isle of Man, once becoming totally separate from the United Kingdom as a self-governing country, was given the permission to use the '.im' National Top Level Domain (known as TLD) and was given responsibility. The registry for the .im ccTLD is Domicilium (IOM) Limited.

The registry responsibilities are:

  • Keeping control, ownership and responsibility over the register to make sure everything goes smoothly
  • Process the applications by those requesting domain names to register or renew.
  • When a domain holder requests the change in the register or needs information about the .im domain name system, Domicilium must do so.
  • Publish information so that domain name holders knew when they need to renew.

When choosing the name for the ccTLD .im, there are certain conditions that need to be followed:

  • Characters from the Roman Alphabet (a-z) can be used.
  • Digits (0-9) are allowed.
  • The only specialised characters that can be used are hyphens (-). Since they are not yet offered by the IDN, the last or the first character cannot be a hyphen.
  • The maximum amount of characters allowed in a .im domain name is 63, the minimum being. The only exception would be through a larger sum of money paid to get a name with one or two characters.

The second-level domains that are currently available are as follows:

  • .im
  • .plc.co.im
  • .net.im
  • .co.im
  • .org.im
  • .ac.im
  • .ltd.co.im
  • .com.im
  • .gov.im

If any domain name isn't desired by the Government, they have the right to withdraw it within the first two working days.

BB Online Domain Information Update ".is" domains.

You can now register a Icelandic domain today.

Once the domain is registered

Domains registered with us are automatically provided with their own under-construction page - this notifies potential registrants that the name has been acquired and is now registered.

It is possible for Web and/or Mail forwarding to be provided for Icelandic domains.

Domain transfer/release fees are charged are by a majority of registrars, but BB Online make no charge to transfer a domain to another Icelandic domain name registrar.

Background

ISNIC - Internet á Íslandi hf. manages the registry for the .is country-code top-level domain

ISNIC (Internet á Íslandi hf.) was founded in 1995 in order to operate the Icelandic Internet (ISnet).

ISNIC was established. However the initial connections to the European EUnet network were run under the auspices of the University of Iceland and the Icelandic Marine Research Institute.

The Icelandic network grew rapidly and by 1995 the members of the above organizations decided that the network's operation needed to be established in a formal manner. The network was, at this time, used by all Internet users in Iceland, including the Universities, the government, large companies and the rest of the educational system. Most of the user companies etcetera became shareholders in the new company. ISNIC grew rapidly during its first years of operation it became

Iceland's first member of RIPE and was allocated the first IP addresses in Iceland (130.208.0.0/16), the first Autonomous System number (1850) and inherited the management role for the .IS ccTLD, which had been delegated to SURIS in 1988 by IANA.

In 2001 ISNIC was restructured as a smaller company responsible for the .IS ccTLD management and in 2007, Internet á Íslandi hf. was acquired by a group of investors and subsequently merged with Modernus ehf. the operators of the icelandic coordinated web measurement system. These measurements continue under the ISNIC name.

Today ISNIC concentrates on three core competencies; (1) Operating the .IS ccTLD (country-code Top-Level Domain), (2) Operating the Reykjavik Internet Exchange, and (3) The Icelandic coordinated web traffic measurement system.

Currently the following criteria needs to be met in order to register a ".is" domain name:

• Only letters of the English alphabet;

• Numerals (0-9);

• Hyphen (-);

• The Icelandic letters á, æ, é, ð, í, ó, ö, þ, ú and ý

• A domain name shall not begin or end with a hyphen, and shall not contain a hyphen in both third and fourth position. (Due to the IDN's punycode wich allows the Icelandic characters to be registered in the domain name.)

• A domain name, including the ending .is, shall not be longer then 66 letters. ACE encoding of a domain name shall not be longer than 59 letters. (The encoding used in International domain names IDN's)

The ISNIC currently operates on a "first come, first served" basis. This applies if there are numerous applications for the same domain name.

The registrant is responsible for ensuring that the registered ".is" domain is within the limits of Icelandic law. The registrant is also responsible for payments of any fees regarding delegation and renewal of the domain name.

The following second level domain names are currently managed by the ISNIC:

.is A foreign registrant may request a ".is" domain
net.is
com.is
edu.is For the educational system
gov.is For governmental entities
org.is For organisations and charities
int.is

A ".is" domain is valid for one year at a time. However if the annual renewal fee has not been received by the domain's expiration date the ".is" domain will be suspended by ISNIC. If suspended more than 60 days the ISNIC will remove the domain name from the registry and the rights to the domain then become void and the domain becomes available for registration again.

Should the registrant of a domain decide to change custodian, which implies changes in the delegation records, the domain's administrative or technical contact requests such a change via the appropriate ISNIC web form. Should ISNIC perform the redelegation a fee is charged to the billing contact.

.IS delegation requirements are as follows:

1. The nameservers must be registered with ISNIC.

2. Nameservers must allow connection to UDP port 53, and to TCP port 53 as well.

3. SOA records must be correctly formatted:

a. Master nameserver correctly named in the MNAME field.

b. Working mailbox of responsible party in RNAME field.

c. Times (refresh, retry and expire) according to RFC1912

4. TTL for NS records not lower than 24 hours.

5. Correct NS records. Properly registered in the appropriate zones, both forward and reverse. i.e. the nameserver's name must be included in the PTR record set for the nameserver's IP address.
