When you register a .nz domain name, you are responsible (as a condition of the registration) to ensure that the domain name does not breach a third party’s legal rights.

Further, you are required to review and agree to:

• the .nz Registrant Core Terms and Conditions Agreement (update hyperlink to https://dnc.org.nz/assets/DocumentLibrary/Domain-Name-Commission-draft-registrant-agreement-core-terms-and-conditions-2.1.pdf); and
• all current .nz policies. The current .nz policies (update hyperlink to https://internetnz.nz/nz-domains/nz-policies/) are being consolidated into a single document called .nz Rules, which will come into effect in 2022 with the launch of the new .nz registry system.
