WELCOME TO THE WEBSITE OF THE
ASIAN DOMAIN NAME DISPUTE RESOLUTION CENTRE (ADNDRC)
(BEIJING OFFICE)
Operated and Managed by the China International Economic and Trade
Arbitration Commission (CIETAC)
The Asian Domain Name Dispute Resolution Centre (ADNDRC) is one
of only four (4) providers in the world and the first and only one
located in Asia, of dispute resolution services in regards to generic
top level domain names (gTLD's), which are the top level domains
approved by the Internet
Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), which appointed
the ADNDRC as a domain name dispute provider on 3 December, 2001.
The domains in question include the original three - .com, .net and
.org, as well as the subsequently approved domain names- .biz, .name,
.info, .pro, .coop, .aero, .museum, .job and .travel.
The ADNDRC (Beijing Office) is operated and managed by the China
International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (CIETAC).
Disputes handled by the ADNDRC (Beijing Office) are governed by
the Uniform
Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) and the Uniform
Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy Rules (UDRP Rules) approved
for implementation by ICANN on 26 August, 1999 and 24 October, 1999
as well as the ADNDRC Domain
Name Dispute Supplemental Rules adopted by the ADNDRC with effect
from 28 February, 2002. It should be noted that these provisions
apply to disputes involving .com, .net, .org and other generic top
level domain names.
Administrative proceeding is the method chosen by ICANN
under the UDRP
and the UDRP
Rules for the purpose of resolving disputes in regards to .com,
.net, .org and the other gTLD domain names. The Administrative proceeding
process will essentially be based only on the documents provided
by the parties with an in-person hearing occurring only in exceptional
cases.
Domain name disputes administered by the Beijing
Office of the ADNDRC can be filed and handled by e-mail, fax and/or
post. The necessary forms needed to file a Complaint and to file
a Response can be downloaded by clicking on "Download
Forms".
However, a
fully web-based on-line domain name dispute resolution system
has been developed by the ADNDRC (Beijing Office) of Hong Kong, which facilitates the
handling of domain name dispute cases. Parties
are urged to use this system as it will greatly enhance the management
of the domain name dispute resolution process. To go to the ADNDRC
(Beijing Office) web-based on line domain name dispute resolution
system click

In order to be of further assistance there is Flow
Chart of Proceedings showing the various stages of a ADNDRC
(Beijing Office) domain name dispute resolution proceeding, as well
as a series of Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQ's) and answers thereto, which hopefully will be useful
to you. We intend to provide additional FAQ's from time to time.
If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to
communicate with the ADNDRC (Beijing Office) Domain Name Case Administrator
by e-mail, fax or phone at the e-mail
address, fax and telephone numbers provided on this site.
The Beijing Office of the ADNDRC looks forward to being of service
to you.
