Registrar

Who can become a registrar member of AFNIC?

Membership of AFNIC as a registrar is primarily directed at companies whose main activity is a domain name registrar activity.

Companies whose activity consists almost exclusively of providing accommodation services and creating Web sites, etc., will not always benefit from membership of the association. The annual membership fees and the annual renewal of domain names may be more expensive than requesting a registrar that is already a member of AFNIC to make one or several domain name registrations.

A registrar may belong to AFNIC regardless of its nationality (French or other) but it can only register domain names for:

  • entities with a legal existence in France, in other words entities that can provide us with a SIREN/SIRET number (kbis or INSEE document),
  • trademarks registered with INPI or OMPI (for OMPI, France must be mentioned on the registration certificate),
  • adult individuals with an address in France.

Technical requirements

To become a registrar of AFNIC, you must have:

  • a full-time Internet connection,
  • two DNS servers on distinct IP addresses.
