What is TRABIS?

TRABIS

.tr domain name operations have been started to be performed through registry operators as of March 23, 2020, after the closing process of Nic.TR.

In this process, Domain Name API founded by the METU Development Foundation as a registry operator has started delivering METU experience and knowledge to our valuable users and operating with the aim of providing quality service.

As Domain Name API, we will continue the sensibility and care we have performed in the closing process of Nic.TR with our service mentality focused on user satisfaction in TRABİS processes and applications.

Our development and improvement efforts continue in order for the TRABIS transition to be carried out professionally and seamlessly for both you, our users, and us, the registry authorities.

Please review the explanations below in order to have accurate and sufficient information in the transition process.

You can contact us through our support channels and visit our website to find answers to any questions you may have after your review.

What is TRABIS?

.tr Network Information System, abbreviated as TRABİS, is a system that covers the management and operation of the “.tr” domain name system and database. It ensures that system-related guidance (whois), updating (DNS, owner and responsible information, renewal), instant allocation processes continue safely and continuously.

These transactions, previously carried out by Nic.TR, will be under the management of ICT with the activation of TRABİS.  However, you are required to carry out your transactions on domain names with .tr extension through accredited registry authorities since TRABIS does not provide direct service to the end-user.

All of the domain names that have not been transferred to any registry authority will be transferred to TRABIS in the closing process of Nic.TR.

DOMAIN NAME TRANSACTIONS IN THE TRABIS PROCESS

Allocation

All of the domain name allocation processes with TRABIS transition will be performed through registry authorities. The operation and rules of the allocation process have not yet been fully clarified, you, our users will be informed in detail based on the statement from the ICT.
