The Chinese registry has adapted his policy for the registration of .cn names by foreign companies. Foreign companies now have the possibility to register a .cn domain name. However you need to meet some strict conditions:
1) A foreign company needs to have a Chinese branch. Only the Chinese branch can apply for a .cn domain name.
2) Paperwork is required in order to register a .cn domain name. All this paperwork needs to be send back to the register within 3 days after your application:
- Your registrar will provide you a registration document. This document needs to be signed, printed on letterheaded paper and stamped with the company seal/stamp.
- You need to provide a business certificate from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
- You need to provide a copy of the identity card of the person who has signed the registration document. This person needs to own a valid Chinese ID.
If your Chinese branch isn’t registered in the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, your domain name will be put on the status ’serverhold’. Once you can provide a business certificate and the other documents are approved, your domain name will be put on the status ‘ok’. Once this is done, you have registered the domain name.
