Knowledgebase: Domain Name Registration
What can I do if somebody else has my domain name registered in their name?

If there is a dispute regarding the incorrect or unlawful registration of a domain name which you believe you are entitled to:

  • For .nz domain names there is a Dispute Resolution Service provided by the Office of the Domain Name Commissioner (DNC).  Information on the Dispute Resolution Service and an online complaint lodgement form is available at www.dnc.org.nz/drs
  • For other domain name extensions, you may need to take legal action against the current Registrant and should seek legal advice.
