Buy .com.mk Domain Name

Article 9 of the regulation lists the eligible holders for com.mk as categories — commercial companies, natural persons registered for independent activity, holders of public authorisations, chambers, cooperatives, financial organisations, and legal and natural persons registered to carry out economic activity — and imposes no domestic registration requirement. What is asked is that you be a registered business. The article that spells out by name how a foreign company is identified is article 5, which governs direct .mk.

The difference lies in the eligibility article. Article 5 says «all legal entities» for direct .mk and adds that entities registered abroad are identified through their own country's registers, while requiring residence or stay in the country from natural persons. Article 9 instead reserves com.mk for registered businesses and admits a natural person only in a registered business capacity. In short, .mk is open to a broader set of applicants; com.mk asks for commercial status.

Article 17 paragraph 8 lists them: a certified photocopy of the act by which entry was made in the relevant statutory register, or equivalent proof of the acquired right to carry out the activity; approval from a competent authority where the regulation requires it; and, for a natural person applicant, inspection of an identity document or electronic identification. The same article also requires at least two name servers with correctly configured records. Article 33 provides that the domain may be deleted if the documents prove inauthentic.

Not immediately. Article 18 builds a three-step chain: if the registration is not renewed by its expiry date, the domain enters a 60-day protective period in which its data cannot be changed; if it is not renewed within those 60 days, the domain is withdrawn from the primary zone and the address stops resolving; and once 120 days have passed since entry into the protective period, it is deleted from the Register and becomes free again. The total recovery window is therefore about four months.

In court. Article 37 of the regulation directs the parties to resolve disputes arising from domain registration before the competent court, and article 32 paragraph 4 states that MARnet cannot be a party to such disputes — so there is no UDRP-style administrative panel. MARnet does hold a protective power, however: article 20 allows it to deactivate a domain temporarily where there is serious suspicion that the domain was registered contrary to the regulation or infringes the rights of others.
