WHOIS Verification: Why It Matters Print

If you register a domain and don't verify your email, your website will be suspended. This isn't our ruleit's a global requirement by ICANN.

The 15-Day Window

When you register a new domain or change your contact details, ICANN requires us to verify that your email address is active.

  • The Email: You will receive an email with a subject like "Verification Required for [[suspicious link removed]]".

  • The Action: You must click the confirmation link inside that email.

  • The Risk: If you do not click the link within 15 days, the registry will place the domain on "ClientHold" status, which takes your website and email offline until verified.
