To meet Traficom’s NIS2 requirements (as the .FI registry) for the .FI ccTLD, we are updating how .FI domains are handled on our platform.
We are aligning our .FI processes with our existing gTLD and ICANN standards; the same structured approach we already use for SIDN, Nominet, and AFNIC.
The result: consistent processes, clearer responsibilities, and compliance built in by default.
Below is what changes and what we ask from you.
Verification and validation of registrant data
For .FI registrations, we now apply the same verification and validation procedures used for gTLDs under ICANN rules.
This helps ensure that registrant …
Two new top-level domains (TLDs), .mobile and .med, are now available for registration via our platform. This gives resellers additional options to expand their domain portfolio and support customer demand in fast-growing sectors.

The .med extension provides a clear and recognisable online identity for healthcare and medical-related organisations. It supports credibility and trust for websites linked to medical services, digital health solutions, and patient-focused platforms.

What does this mean in practice?
SSL certificate validity periods will be reduced gradually as part of new CA/Browser Forum baseline requirements.
Certificates issued before each change date will remain valid for their original term. However, any certificate that …
