Nominet has announced the rules and prices they charge to registrars for multi-year registrations, with the options for registrations from one to ten years, when the new rules come into place on 1 May 2012. Under the new multi-year registration options, single year registrations will be more expensive, with the prices charged to registrars being £3.50, while registrations for two or more years costing £2.50 (VAT) per year. The default registration period will be for two years.However the new rules will only be available for registrations through registrars that are Nominet members.
