Requirements
Who can register a .jx.cn?
- Individuals as well as companies and organisations from outside China can register a .jx.cn domain name.
- .jx.cn requires real-name registration with CNNIC. You provide the real name of a person, even if an organisation is the registrant.
- The registrant's name must exactly match the name on the ID document or the company registration, including the legal form, such as LTD.
- If you're from outside China, the name as it appears in your passport must not contain special characters, such as ä, ü, ö or é. Otherwise CNNIC can't verify your document.
- Does the company's contact person have special characters in their name? Then you can provide another person within the company who is willing to be verified.
- The company's contact person doesn't need to appear on the company document.
- You must comply with CNNIC's rules and Chinese law. Names that, for example, harm national security, incite discrimination or spread pornography, gambling or violence are prohibited.
- If your website's web server is located in China, you need an ICP number from the Chinese ministry MIIT. This is only possible if the registrant has a branch in China.
- When registering, you declare that you're providing genuine, accurate and complete documents, that you've read and understood CNNIC's rules, and that you'll comply with the content rules for your website.
- You're fully responsible yourself if the domain name is suspended because you don't follow the rules.
Additional details for registration
- You indicate whether the registrant is an individual or a company or organisation.
- You provide the type and number of the registrant's ID document or company registration.
- If the registrant is a company or organisation, you also provide the name of a responsible person within the organisation.
- If your website runs on a server in China, you also provide a valid ICP number.
Documents
- Individuals outside China send a scan or photo of their passport or ID card. A driving licence isn't accepted, and the document must show the registrant's name.
- Companies and organisations outside China send an extract from the trade register or a similar company document, plus a copy of the responsible person's passport or ID card.
- Registrants from mainland China send a copy of their Chinese ID card, not a passport. Chinese companies also send page 1 of their company document, preferably the business licence.
- Registrants from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan can use special travel or residence permits. For the residence permits and the residence card for foreigners, both the front and the back are required.
- Submit the documents as a JPEG file of no more than 1 MB.
- A signed declaration is no longer required.
Good to know when registering
- CNNIC checks every application manually, even if the registrant has been approved before.
- If the documents haven't been received after 8 days, the registration fails.
- After registration, you can request a domain certificate. To do so, you provide the domain name and the registrant's phone number.
Transfer
Transferring a .jx.cn
- Real-name registration is also required for a transfer. You then submit an ID document or company document, and this may involve additional costs.
- The registrant must request the transfer in advance, in writing and signed.
- The domain name must not have a transfer lock. You can see this in the WHOIS, and as the registrant you can ask your current registrar to remove the lock.
- The domain name must be older than 60 days, otherwise the transfer will be refused.
- The expiry date must be more than 15 days in the future. So start in good time and not just before the domain name expires.
The transfer code
- For a transfer, you need a transfer code. The registrant or the administrative contact requests it from the current registrar.
- Check beforehand that the code is correct, because the transfer will fail with an incorrect code.
Owner
Change of registrant
Change of registrant
- A copy of the new registrant's passport or ID card, or of the company document, is required.
- Submit the documents as a JPG, PNG, GIF or JPEG file of no more than 1 MB.
- A change of registrant isn't processed immediately, so allow for some waiting time.
- If the domain name is currently held by a trustee service, you can move it to a registrant of your own. Moving it to a trustee service isn't possible.
Renewal, cancellation and quarantine
- If you restore a domain name from quarantine, it's inactive at first. It works again as soon as nameservers have been set, and WebOké takes care of that for you.
