Thread: .ie domains....

If you have an RBN you shouldn't need anything else if it matches the domain name partially or wholly.

Proof of trading is not required ....

If you want to register a .ie that does not match your RBN you will need to provide a signed letter outlining briefly why you want to register it.

I won't comment on pricing

When you register new domains blacknight, do you use the letter option or just register a new business name.

Usually the letter option ...

A lot of the ones that the company owns are directly related to our core business, so we wouldn't need to provide much in the way of "proof", whereas my personal ones, such as armchair.ie or browse.ie, needed justification.

For the company I would register a business name only if I intended us to trade using it at some point in the future

Right, I'll chance the letter option, if it doesnt work I can always register a BN. So you write the letter 'from' the Blacknight company. Will a letter just from me personally work? I'm registerting one through blacknight.ie now, can I just email my letter on to you then

The letter has to come from you

The company that registers the domain will simply contact you for the info if you don't supply it

Alright. So now I just send my letter to IE Domain Registry Limited, Windsor House, 14 Windsor Terrace, Sandycove,Co. Dublin and wait for a response.

No.

You either fax it or email it to Blacknight (the company - not me!)

Sure isn't it the same thing! Alrite, give us a sec

It seems you can get anything you want using

descr: Sole Trader
descr: Discretionary Name

If you are convincing enough/and they like your argument

Its a bit harder with

descr: Natural Person
descr: Discretionary Name

but still possible, if you play up the non-profit angle

once you have the domain it seems you can do what you want, as they don't visit it, so some adsense on the latter causes no problems
