-Registration of domains in .ngo|.ong are technically “bundled.” This means that by registering and purchasing a domain in the .ngo TLD, for example, the NGO registrant is also registering and purchasing the corresponding name in the .ong TLD (and vice-versa for registrations in .ong). The Registrant cannot, for example, purchase “example.ngo” by itself; by purchasing the domain “example.ngo” the Registrant is also necessarily purchasing the domain “example.ong” due to the technical bundling of domains in .ngo|.ong.
+Please note that the TLDs .ONG and .NGO are no longer included in one registration. On June 1st 2022, the responsible registry has separated .NGO and .ONG domains. Since then, registrants are able to register .NGO and .ONG domains separately. In addition, the registry has allocate new .ONG domains for all registrants of the .NGO and .ONG bundles which existed at that time.
-* If the Registrant takes a particular action concerning the registration of a domain registered in .ngo (such as transferring or deleting the registration), the same action must also be taken for the corresponding .ong domain (and vice-versa).
-* If any Registry, Registrar or Service Provider policies change concerning a domain registered in .ngo (including, but not limited to, denying, suspending, revoking, transferring or modifying the information or services provided in relation to any domain name), the Registry, Registrar or Service Provider will necessarily take the same action against the corresponding domain registered in the .ong TLD (and vice-versa).

-For entities registering subsequent domain name bundles, all domains will have their validation term synced to the most recent registration. As a registrant benefit, this will simplify the re-validation process by having one validation date for all domains, regardless of multiple registration dates. Registrants purchasing additional domain names will simply need to confirm the accuracy of the validation data previously supplied. When transferring a domain that has not expired to a new registrant, the new registrant will be required to complete validation.''
