How to Become an Accredited .ae Registrar?

A Registrar is an individual or entity that is accredited by the .aeDA to act on behalf of registrants to register, transfer, renew or modify .ae domain names in the Registry.

Registrars provide services to applicants to register and maintain domain names in the .ae Registry System, provide registration information update services for registrants, and are entitled to charge Registrants for these services.

In order to be accredited as a Registrar, the .aeDA’s Accreditation Requirements must be met, which include:

Accreditation for Registrars

Registrars who apply and meet the .aeDA’s requirements will go through the accreditation process. Registrars will sign a Registry Registrar Agreement with the .aeDA covering the technical ability to integrate with the Registry Systems, and their responsibilities as an Accredited Registrar to comply with the .aeDA’s policy. Only those Registrars who are accredited will be able to operate in the .ae name space.
