Registrant Verification
ICANN stipulates that by being a Registrant of a domain name or by changing the registrant name or email address for existing domains, the registrant needs to verify their contact information. For new registrations, the registrant must verify their email address. For changes to existing domain names, they must verify the name or email modification. Please note that without timely verification (15 days) of the email address or modified contact information, the domain name will stop resolving after its respective Verification Deadline Date.
