What is a domain certificate and who receives it?

The certificate is a sort of deed of ownership for the domain holder. The certificate download link on the nic.at website is sent to the domain holder's e-mail address. The certificate can be viewed or downloaded at any time on the nic.at website.

I haven't received a domain certificate or need a new one.

You can view, print or download your domain certificate at any time on the nic.at website. Just enter your domain name (including .at, .co.at or .or.at) in the entry field and click "show". In order to open the file, you need the Acrobat Reader software, which can be downloaded for free at the indicated link.

What shall I do if there is wrong data on the certificate?

The data on the certificate is identical to the current nic.at data entry. If this date is not correct, please make a data modification (online or via your ISP) and send us the new data. Some modifications must be confirmed by you as the domain holder in writing.

I cannot open the certificate. What can i do?

If opening the certificate should result in an error message, please ensure, that you have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed. Problems can also occur with older versions of the Reader. Therefore please download the newest version here , if you encounter any problems.

If installing the newest Acrobat Reder - version still doesn't solve your problem, feel free contact our service-team . They will gladly send you your domain-certificate via e-mail.
