Understanding .UK domain name Contacts

• A .UK domain name displays only 1 Contact when performing a Whois lookup:

  Registrant Contact: This contact represents the owner of the domain name.

  Note

  There are no Administrative, Technical and Billing Contacts for .UK domain names.

  Additional Information

  Registrants who are non-trading individuals (those who do not use or plan to use their domain name for business, trade [including registration of domain names for monetization purposes] or professional transactions) can choose to opt out of having their Contact Details displayed in the Whois lookup.

  This option can be enabled by the Registrant from within his Nominet control panel.

• General Contacts used for other domain name extensions (TLDs) can not be used for a .UK domain name. A .UK domain name has a separate Contacts database.

   Note

   The update will be applied to all the domain names using this particular Registrant Contact.
