.RU new registration requirements
The .RU registry has introduced new registration rules:
registrants of .RU domain names – specifically the owner contact (contact
handle) – must verify their identity by submitting respective documents.

These changes also apply to all existing .RU registrations. Effective April 1,
2010, the non-submission of documents to the registry may result in the
deletion of domains.

Which documents are required?
- For legal entities / companies: A copy of a document confirming state
registration of a legal entity issued by the state authorities (certificate
of registration, excerpt from the commercial register)
- For natural persons and entrepreneurs: passport copy

Please note: The documents have to be readable, personal details and date of
issue have to be obvious. You can submit the documents in english or german
language.

How to submit the documents?
Please send the documents as PDF file only via e-mail to the e-mail address:
support@easytouch.com

The e-mail subject MUST include the respective domain name

domain: .ru

Example: domain: examplea.ru

++++++++

In order to help prevent abuse, please collect yourself the documents of
your customers and send us the files in the above format by e-mail.

We will forward the registry response about the successful or unsuccessful
confirmation of the owner contact to our resellers by e-mail using the
e-mail address given in your Easytouch.com Members account. If a contact handle has
been successfully confirmed once, it will not have to be verified again.

Because of the new rules, we are going to change the registration process
for new .RU domains effective March 22, 2010:
When registering a .RU domain, the ID documents have to be submitted by
e-mail in the way described above within three business days at the latest.
The domain status will read “processing” until the owner contact has been
confirmed by the registry.
