ADR

To obtain the transfer of the domain name, you must meet three cumulative requirements:

The domain name is identical or very similar to one of the following elements:

a brand

a trade name

a registered name or company name

a geographic indication

a personal name

a designation of a geographic entity

to which the complainant has rights.

The registrant has no right to or legitimate interest in that domain name.

The registrant acted with the intention of causing harm to a third party or of obtaining an unwarranted benefit.

Filing Fee(s)

The complainant has to pay the required fee (€1,750 VAT excl.) at the beginning of the procedure. If the Third-Party Decision-Maker decides that the complaint is justified, we will refund the entire fee to the complainant, and will then claim that amount from the previous, illegal registration.
