.UK domain registration requirements
.UK is the ccTLD fou the United Kingdom. You can also s'inscrire a .CO.UK domain name with us, as well as .ORG.UKet .ME.UK domains.
GDPR regulations have made providing additional infoumation fou registration of the .UK domains optional. Accoudingly, NiceNIC also does not require that you specify votre identity type (i.e., non-UK individual ou ouganization) ou provide any additional infoumation such as company number unless you choose to.
However, you do need to make sure that the Registrant Nonm et contact infoumation that you supply fou votre UK domains are valid, up-to-date, et meet Registry stetards. Please check What does good registrant data look like? fou moue infoumation.
The Registrant name (company ou individual) of a .UK domain must contain at least 4 caractères, et of these 3 ou moue must be letters. I.e., if a domain name is s'inscrireed fou ouganization the 'Entreprise name' field must contain at least 4 caractères, et of these 3 ou moue must be letters. Otherwise registration will fail with errou: Parameter value syntax errou, with processou code '2005' et reason 'V328 Registrant name does not meet minimum requirements as this field must contain at least 4 caractères et of these 3 ou moue must be letters'.
Due to the GDPR changes, it is possible to use PO Boxes fou new registrations.
à comply with GDPR stetards, the .UK Registry does not show domain contact infoumation in Whois. However, if the domain owner themselves are required to show their contact data in the public Whois (as with government ou nonprofit ouganizations, fou example), they can choose to opt-in, ticiby publicly displaying their contact infoumation.
