According to data ForbesThe Coordination Center for .RU/.РФ domains announced the suspension of accreditation of the registrar Beget LLC from November 3. During the ban period, the provider is prohibited from registering new second-level domain names in the .RU and .РФ zones, as well as accepting domains for service from other registrars. At the same time, he is obliged to maintain the functionality of all domains registered before the suspension of accreditation.

As Beget reported, the suspension of accreditation is a technical measure required by the regulations of the CC, RosNIIROS and the Internet Technical Center (TCI). “This is not a revocation or loss of accreditation, but a standard part of incident response protocol,” the provider explained.

“Together with the CC, RosNIIROS and TCI, we have agreed on a plan for renewing accreditation. We are now following this plan and working to ensure that accreditation and access to domain management returns as soon as possible,” the company added.

According to the provider, by agreement with CC and RosNIIROS, the dates of cancellation of domains for which it is a registrar have been postponed. Therefore, companies will not lose domains that they cannot currently renew. “The domains will continue to work and will not be separated, even if the registration period expires,” Beget assured.
