Punktum dk Introduces NIS2 Verification Features
Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed.
Jan 14, 11:41 CET
Verifying - Verification is currently underway for the maintenance items.
Jan 14, 10:36 CET
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Jan 14, 08:00 CET
Scheduled - With the implementation of the EU NIS2 cybersecurity directive in Denmark, registrars are now required to verify domain registrants’ identities and contact information following agreed procedures. To support compliance, Punktum dk has developed a dedicated solution that allows registrars to either perform these verification checks themselves or delegate them to Punktum dk. The solution ensures all procedures and documentation meet NIS2 requirements, helping registrars maintain compliance while protecting registrant data.

For full details, see the Punktum.dk article: Implementation of NIS2 https://punktum.dk/en/articles/implementation-of-nis2

The complete NIS2 verification solution be made available in our sandbox (Registrar Portal and EPP only) and production environments on Wednesday, January 14, 2026

Expected Impact

- dkhm:contact_verification A complex type containing information regarding the contact verification process and status, including who is responsible for performing the verification process (registrar/registry), which type and verification process (identity/e-mail) and status of the verification process.
DKHM 4.4 is still supported with this release.
• Additional poll messages primarily regarding verification flows delegated to Punktum dk.

Changes Included (Registrar Portal)
• Selection of preferred verification model (registrar/registry) on the registrar account
• Addition of verification elements in the web based contact and domain creation and display flows
