    Hello,

    I already looked this up on http://www.domainregistry.ie/ but am none the wiser.

    I've been asked to set up a basic site for our local residents association who also want a .ie domain but it looks like I can't do this unless I'm a company?

    Is this correct or did I miss something?

    Any help appreciated,

    John

    No - not only companies can set them up. It depends on the legal structure of the body. have a look here

    Roughly speaking all ya need is a letter on letterhead showing your association to the country.

    I cannot see a better association that being a res-assn!

    Thanks C,

    I looked at the link you provided and it mentions...

    Unincorporated Association Name:
    A self-issued letter from the applicant on the association's letterhead stating that they are an Unincorporated Association and require the domain name to reflect their organisation's name.


    So maybe I can g about it with a letter!


    Thanks for your reply,


    John

    Hi JustMary,

    It looks like you're right, at least by my understanding of...

    Unincorporated Association Name:
    A self-issued letter from the applicant on the association's letterhead stating that they are an Unincorporated Association and require the domain name to reflect their organisation's name.


    I'll give it a go, thanks for your help :)
