Current Version of Registrant Agreement (at: www.cira.ca/assets/Documents/Legal/Registrants/registrantagreement.pdf)

Before proceeding with the registration procedure, please make sure that you will be able to comply with the unique registration requirements for the .PRO TLD:

1. To be eligible to register a .PRO domain, you should be:
   • A person or entity that provides professional services;
   • Admitted to or licensed by a government certification body or jurisdictional licensing entity recognized by a governmental body that regularly verifies the accuracy of its data;
   • In good standing with the licensing authority.
2. A standard .PRO registration involves a three-step verification process:
   1. RegistryPro, the .PRO registry, will send the Registrant Contact an email address describing the instructions on where to submit Authentication and Verification information. You must complete this step within 44 days; otherwise you will lose your domain and there will be no refund whatsoever;
   2. The identity information provided and self-certified by the registrant is used to activate your name;
   3. The self-certified professional data provided by the registrant is randomly verified against an appropriate licensing or accreditation database.
3. Information required during the verification process:
   • Name;
   • Profession;
   • Jurisdictional country;
   • Licensing authority;
   • License number;
   • A link to your licensing authority's website.

In order to run a .MOBI site you need to meet several requirements, enforced by the .MOBI registry, aimed at facilitating the access to your pages through a mobile device.
1. XHTML Mobile Profile - All pages in your .MOBI site must be encoded in XHTML-MP (Mobile Profile). This is required since many mobile devices still have problems connecting to a normally formatted web page. In case your website does not have a user agent recognition, you should at least direct the visitors to an XHTML-MP encoded page, telling them what device is needed to access your website.
2. Second-Level Domain Site - All .MOBI websites must respond to an HTTP request to your web address without the "www" part (e.g. to my-site.mobi instead of to www.my-site.mobi). Researches show that a vast majority of the mobile Internet users find it particularly troublesome typing "www" each time they need to access a certain domain name, especially if their device is equipped with a numeric keypad.
3. Use of Frames - You are not allowed to use framed redirections on your .MOBI website. Instead, all redirections should be done by HTTP 3XX (301, 302, 304, 307). You can easily make these redirects via an .htaccess file.
4. URIs for Country Specific Sites - This is a recommendation rather than a requirement. If you wish to offer services to the markets of different countries, you should use the country identifier TLD as a third-level domain identifier and thus set up separate country-specific web addresses, i.e. jp.my-site.mobi, uk.my-site.mobi.
