Can non-members receive registration services from the RIPE NCC?
No. Registration Services are only available to the members of the RIPE NCC. Organisations often become a member of the RIPE NCC because they need to be multihomed and use external gateway protocols (e.g. BGP4) or they need large amounts of IP address space for their operations as an Internet Service Providers (ISP). To receive registration services from the RIPE NCC, an organisation needs to become a member of the RIPE NCC. In most cases, organisations can obtain IP addresses from an upstream service provider and there is no need to obtain address space directly from the RIPE NCC. If your organisation is interested in becoming a member of the RIPE NCC please see this page.
