    fTLD Registrar - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) How do I become an fTLD registrar? See the information at BECOME AN fTLD REGISTRAR for details on the process. fTLD Registry System Who operates the fTLD Registry System? Verisign is the Registry Service Provider and Symantec is the Verification Agent. Is there a web interface available for registrars to process registrations for fTLD? No, fTLD registration is not supported by a web interface to EPP. Registration is initially first-come, first-served, but what is used to determine which registration arrived first?

Any domain name(s) that corresponds to the registrant’s trademarks, trade names or service marks can be registered during General Availability. For guidance on selecting domains, please see the fTLD Name Selection Policies and their Implementation Guidelines here. Are there any differences between the “corresponds to” rule for domain names in .BANK and .INSURANCE? Yes, in .INSURANCE domain names must correspond to a trademark, trade name or service mark of the Applicant in bona fide use for the offering of goods or services, or provision of information, in the jurisdiction where the registrant is licensed, approved or certified to conduct business. Please consult section 3.1 of the .INSURANCE Name Selection Policy for specific information.
