nic.af is the only delegating body (registry) for .af domains in the world. We do not offer any technical services, which means that only the domain name can be registered at nic.at. nic.af does not offer any of the other services you may wish to arrange for a domain, such as e-mail, hosting, installation of the website and other services. Internet service providers are responsible for providing these. An Internet service provider offers technical services, such as setting up e-mail addresses with your domain extension, name servers, web space, etc. There is number of Internet service providers with which nic.af has a special cooperation contract for domain administration. These Internet service providers are called registrars or .af partners. They are subject to a certain degree of quality control and can perform transactions automatically. This means that registrars are authorized to make certain changes without being required to submit the domain holder's confirmation, but are also liable for errors. However, being a registrar is not a prerequisite for being able to register .af domains. Many Internet service providers are so-called resellers. Internet service providers who have a contract with one of our .af partners (registrars) and can therefore work via our partner's system are referred to as resellers. Resellers do not appear in the nic.af system or in the registrar display, instead, only the registrar with whom the reseller has concluded a contract appears. If there is confusion about the presentation of resellers and registrars in your contractual relationship, please contact your Internet service provider with whom you concluded your contract.
