Become a Registrar
How to Become a Domain Registrar?
To become a registrar for an Afilias supported TLD you must first be accredited by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). [Visit ICANN’s accreditation webpage to find out how.] Once you are ICANN accredited, you can start the registration process.
GET STARTED WITH AFILIAS’ ONLINE REGISTRAR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Once Afilias receives notice of your accreditation from ICANN you will be added to the Afilias Online Registrar Management System (ORMS) and your ICANN Primary Contact will receive an email with login instructions. If you have not yet received this email, or would like to open a new Afilias supported TLD application in your account, please contact salesadmin@afilias.info with your company information. If you already have an ORMS account you can login here: apply.afilias.info.
