Requirements
Who can register a .fj.cn?
- Individuals as well as companies and organisations outside China can register a .fj.cn domain name.
- The registry CNNIC requires a real-name verification. The registrant must provide the real name of a natural person and submit proof of identity, including when transferring the domain and when changing it to another registrant.
- The registrant's name must exactly match the name on the identity document or company document, including the legal form, such as LTD.
- If you live outside China, your full name as it appears on your passport must not contain any special characters, such as ä, ü, ö or é. Otherwise CNNIC can't verify your document and the application will fail.
- Does the contact person of a company have special characters in their name? Then the domain can be registered in the name of another person within the company who doesn't have special characters in their name and is willing to send in proof of identity.
- You declare that you're providing genuine, accurate and complete documents. You also confirm that you've read and understood CNNIC's registration rules.
- You comply with all rules on the content of websites under the domain name. You're fully responsible yourself if the domain is suspended following a violation.
- A domain name must not conflict with the Chinese constitution, harm national security, national honour or public order, or incite discrimination.
- Also prohibited is a domain name that spreads cults, pornography, gambling, violence or terror, insults others or infringes their rights, or otherwise breaks Chinese law.
- Is your website's web server located in mainland China? Then you need a valid ICP number from the Chinese ministry MIIT. This is only possible if you have an office in China.
- You must comply with CNNIC's terms and conditions and dispute policy for .fj.cn domains.
Additional details for registration
- You state whether you're registering as an individual or as a company or organisation.
- You provide the type of identity document and its number, for example of your passport, identity card or business licence.
- If you're registering as a company or organisation, you provide the real name of a responsible person. This person doesn't have to be listed on the company document.
- If you use a website on a server in mainland China, you provide a valid ICP number.
Documents
- Individuals outside China send a scan or photo of their passport or identity card. A driving licence isn't accepted and your name must appear on the document.
- Companies and organisations outside China send a scan or copy of their business licence, company certificate or an extract from the trade register. A copy of the contact person's passport or identity card is also required.
- Individuals in China send a copy of their passport or Chinese identity card. If you live in mainland China, it must be your Chinese identity card.
- Companies in China send the first page of their company certificate, preferably the business licence, plus proof of identity of the contact person.
- If you live in Hong Kong, Macau or Taiwan, special travel or residence permits count as proof of identity. For residence permits and the residence card for foreigners, both the front and the back are required.
- When registering, you provide documents as a JPEG file of no more than 1 MB. A signed declaration is no longer required.
Good to know when registering
- The registry CNNIC checks every application manually, so registration isn't instant.
- If the documents haven't been received after 8 days, the registration fails.
- Even if your details have been approved before, the check remains manual.
Transfer
Transferring a .fj.cn
- To transfer a domain, you need a valid transfer code. If the code is incorrect, the transfer fails.
- A registrant is required for a transfer. If the real-name verification has to be carried out, you provide proof of identity and there may be extra costs involved.
- You need a signed request from the registrant before the transfer is started.
- The domain must not be locked. You can see this in the WHOIS, and as the registrant you can ask your current registrar to remove the lock.
- The domain must be older than 60 days, otherwise the transfer will be refused.
- The expiry date must be more than 15 days in the future, otherwise the transfer will be refused. So start in good time and not just before it expires.
The transfer code
- You always need a transfer code to transfer a .fj.cn domain.
- The registrant or the administrative contact requests the code from the current registrar.
- Check that the code is correct before the transfer starts, otherwise it will fail.
Owner
Change of registrant
Change of registrant
- The new registrant provides a copy of their proof of identity or passport, or of the business licence.
- You provide documents as a jpg, png, gif or jpeg of no more than 1 MB.
- The change of registrant isn't processed immediately, because the registry checks the documents first.
- If the domain was registered in the name of a trustee service, you can change it to your own registrant. The other way round, from your own registrant to a trustee service, isn't possible.
Renewal, cancellation and quarantine
- After an expired domain has been restored, it's inactive at first. Once the nameservers have been set up again, it becomes active again. WebOké takes care of this for you.
