Everything You Need to Know About the .ae Registrant Warranties Policy

Your Go-To Guide for Registering and Renewing .ae Domain Names Legally

If you’ve been considering a .ae domain name for your business or personal website, you might have heard about the “.ae Registrant Warranties Policy.” It’s a big part of registering any .ae domain, so understanding it is key to ensuring a smooth and successful registration process. Below, we’ll walk you through what this policy is, why it matters, and how it affects you as the registrant.

What Is the .ae Registrant Warranties Policy?

The Registrant Warranties Policy is a set of rules and statements that you, as the domain owner (or better said – license holder, i.e the registrant), must agree to whenever you register or renew a .ae domain name. Essentially, it outlines what you’re promising to the .ae Domain Administration (.aeDA) and your registrar, in this case, AEserver acts as your accredited registrar in the UAE.

Why does it matter?

• Ensures all .ae domains follow fair and legal guidelines.
• Protects both domain holders and the broader online community from misuse or fraudulent activity.
• Helps maintain a trustworthy .ae space so that visitors can rely on .ae sites.

Key Points to Remember about .ae domains

The policy might look a bit dense, so here’s a simplified breakdown:

1. Accuracy of Information
   When you register or renew your .ae domain, you’re confirming that all details you provide—such as your name, contact info, or any supporting documents—are correct, complete, and not misleading. Entering wrong information could lead to your domain being canceled later.
   
2. Meeting Eligibility Requirements
   Different domain extensions often have certain eligibility rules, and .ae is no exception. By registering your .ae domain, you promise that you fulfill all .aeDA eligibility conditions and will keep fulfilling them as long as you hold the domain.
   
3. Respecting Others’ Rights
   The policy requires that your chosen domain name won’t violate anyone else’s trademarks or rights. If you unintentionally or intentionally pick a name that’s already trademarked by someone else, you risk disputes—and potentially losing the domain.
   
4. Lawful Usage Only
   You agree not to use your .ae domain for any illegal activities. This includes direct or indirect involvement in anything against the law.
   
5. No Duplicate Applications
   If one registrar has turned down your application for a specific .ae domain based on the same eligibility details, you can’t simply reapply through another registrar.
   
6. Potential Challenges and Cancellations
   Even if you successfully register a domain, there’s a chance someone else with a legitimate claim could challenge it later. Also, your domain can be canceled if any of your provided information is found to be false or incomplete.
   

What You’ll See on Registration Forms

When registering or renewing your .ae domain, you’ll come across a statement confirming that all the details you provide are accurate and that you’re registering in good faith. This is your official promise to .aeDA and AEserver. Not abiding by this can cause you to lose your domain. You will see a terms and conditions checkbox when you order anything on our website and that’s when you agree to these terms.

Look Out for Policy Updates

The .aeDA can revise this policy at any time. It’s a good idea to keep an eye on updates or talk to our support team if you need further clarity on any changes.

Practical Tips to Stay Compliant

• Triple Check Your Details: Make sure your contact information is correct before clicking “submit or order”
• Keep Proof of Eligibility: If you need specific documents (e.g., business licenses), keep them updated and ready.
• Avoid Trademark Pitfalls: Double-check that your desired domain doesn’t infringe on someone else’s brand – a good place to check this is the WIPO Global Brand Database
• Plan for Renewals: Each time you renew, you must reconfirm the same warranties, so stay consistent and honest.
• Ask for Help: If any requirement seems confusing, contact our customer support team
