How will the VeriSign Global Registry Services handle trademark issues with regard to international domain names?
As a registry, VeriSign Global Registry Services is not involved in the intellectual property disputes surrounding domain name registration. The VeriSign Global Registry Services will advise registrars that, during the testbed, registrars should consider deleting any internationalized second level domain name registration upon receipt of a formal (written) objection from any legitimate source received by that registrar for a limited period of time to be specified by the particular registrar. In addition, the VeriSign Global Registry Services is aware that accredited registrars may continue to use the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) to resolve disputes, including those involving internationalized domain names.
