There seems to be some confusion about NIS-2. Some registrars, like Openprovider, are already implementing Article 28 of the directive even though it hasn't been transposed into member state law.
What is Article 28 again?
Article 28 requires entities that offer domain name registration such as the registries, the registrar (us), and you, to verify and validate domain name registrants.
We will most likely need to confirm whether the registrant's email address is responsive, similar to the ICANN validation and verification process for gTLD domains since 2013.
Article 28 does not differentiate between ccTLDs and gTLDs.

ICANN 2013 RAA Email Validation Requirement
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) introduced the 2013 Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA), which mandates registrars to validate and verify specific WHOIS data fields, including email addresses. This process …

Why is it a problem?
They mostly use stolen credit cards to pay for these domain names, but we have witnessed other forms of payment fraud.
What is the impact on a reseller or registrar?
We have seen registrars and resellers incur massive financial losses.
Sometimes, we see resellers or registars …
