Published on: 02/09/2023 | Updated on: 02/12/2023 | Reading Time: 2 minutes

Whois Data Reminder Policy (WDRP)

At least annually, we are required to send the registrant the current Whois information, and remind the registrant that provision of false Whois information can be grounds for cancellation of his domain name registration. Registrants must review their Whois data, and make any corrections.

Failure to verify your information will result in temporary suspension until you have verified it. Please click this link for additional information on how to check and update your Whois Contact Information.

The email has the subject line: The verification of your domains is required - {$domain_name}

This email is sent from the address registrant-verification@ispapi.net and it is valid

If you do not see this email in your inbox, please make sure you check your junk / spam folder. ICANN (The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) requires the domain owner to verify their contact details for every new domain registered within a couple of days or else they will deactivate the domain.
