Certifcation is a process to ensure that prospective registrars fulfill requirements in terms of the administrative and technical ability and suitability to represent The Swedish Internet Foundation. Certification is a requirement to sign an agreement with The Swedish Internet Foundation. The following is required for becoming a certified registrar:

  • The registrar must have at least two employees who has studied the self-study material, which is available via The Swedish Internet Foundation's website for registrars.

  • EPP functionality approved via test.

An interested party applies to become a registrar by completing an application form on The Swedish Internet Foundation's website for registrars. When The Swedish Internet Foundation has received and approved the application, instructions are sent by e-mail concerning the EPP test.
