| Article number: kb-7 | Q. About .CN, .COM.CN, .NET.CN, .ORG.CN domains
A. .CN is China's ccTLD. Also available are third level domains .COM.CN, .NET.CN & .ORG.CN
Chinese .CN domains are managed by CNNIC and are now available for worldwide registration.
FAQ's for .CN domains are as follows;
How many years can I register .CN names?
The minimum registration period is 1 year, and the maximum 5 years.
What is changing within .CN?
Under recently announced policy, .CN domain names will be available for registration worldwide. Previously, only registrants located in China were able to register a .CN name. CNNIC is also moving to a real-time registration system. Previously, .CN sales agents accepted .CN registrations, but CNNIC acted as the exclusive Registrar and Registry.
Is there a Nexus requirement for Registrants?
No. Under recently announced .CN policy, registrars may accept .CN registrations from users worldwide.
There are "no policy restrictions" on third-level .CN names. What does that mean, exactly?
After launch, any business or organization, worldwide, can register a .CN name under a new liberalized policy that no longer restricts .CN registrations to Chinese entities.
Who can market .CN names to registrants located in China?
Registrars and resellers of .CN domain names are able to offer .CN domain names to registrants worldwide.
What are the rules for .CN transfers?
Domain names registered through China-based registrars cannot be transferred into non-China based registrars, and vice versa.
Domain names cannot be transferred within the first 60 days of initial registration. Also, domain names scheduled to expire in fewer than 14 days will not be allowed to transfer. These rules are based on the fact that .CN does not have auto-renewal for expired names.
When registering any .CN second or third level domain you must also accept the .CN User Agreement which can be found here - http://nomanix.com/agreement_cn.htm
