Modifying the Whois / Contact Details of .UK Domain Names

Understanding .UK domain name Contacts

  1. A .UK domain name displays only one Contact (there is no Administrative, Technical and Billing Contact) when performing a Whois lookup:

    Registrant Contact - This contact represents the owner of the domain name.
     
  2. General Contacts used for other domain name extensions (TLDs) can not be used for a .UK domain name. A .UK domain name has a separate Contacts database.
    3.
