From 5.9.2016, .fi domain names and the services associated with them can only be obtained through domain name providers. AYY is acting from the date in question as a domain name provider for registered associations in AYY’s association register.
After this, associations can carry out the following services through AYY:
– registration of a .fi domain name for the use of the association
– renewing the validity of the domain name of the association
– transferring the domain name of the association to another user
– changing the provider of the association’s domain name
– cancelling the domain name of the association
If your association already has a .fi domain name, you will already have received mail about the reform from the Finnish Communications Regulatory Authority. From 5.9. onwards, you will need a domain name provider in order to be able to update the details of the domain name or to renew its period of validity.
In that case, it is advisable to connect the address to the administration of the provider well before September. You can connect the domain name to the administration of AYY by supplying the details of the domain name and the authorisation key to AYY at https://lomake.ayy.fi/it/siirto/?lang=en. You can get further information at tietotekniikka@ayy.fi
More detailed information about applying for a new domain name will be sent before September.
