In order to proceed with
the registration of a .ie requested domain name, the Irish Domain
Registrar shall firstly require clarification as to the exact
legal status of the applicant. If the domain name is a direct
permutation of your limited company name (and the organisation
has been incorporated for more than 6 weeks), please simply confirm
your company registration number.
If this is not the case,
a supporting fax on your company letterhead outlining the exact
nature of the application will be required. If you do not have
a registered business name or limited company, a detailed fax
outlining your reasons for applying for the domain name and a
brief description of your intentions for the site will be required.
For more detailed information please read the following information.
IMPORTANT NOTE: All applicants
applying for a .ie domain name who are not situated in the 32
counties, must demonstrate a Real and Substantive Connection
with Ireland (with the exception of those applying with a registered
Community Trademark).
Examples of acceptable documentation
demonstrating substantial trade or commercial activity within
Ireland are as follows:
- Copies of invoices (showing trade to or from Ireland)
- High-quality brochures
- A signed letter on headed paper
from a bank manager, firm of chartered accountant(s),
registered auditor(s), tax consultant(s) (where
the tax advisor identification number is displayed),
or solicitor(s) confirming the applicants trade
with Ireland.
