Registration of new domains at the third level is accomplished by submission of a request to Registrar.kr, a project of Kiravia Online. Most requests are submitted online, though the organisation receives a handful of requests by mail each year. In order to register a domain directly at the second level, the applicant must submit a written petition to Kiravia Online, where it is subject to review by a Board of Revisions based on several criteria, principally the applicant entity's "capacity for productive long-term occupancy of the domain", its degree of physical presence in Kiravia, and its "forseeable contributions to the advancement of Kiravian networked computing". It is understood that the third criterion is fulfilled by a sizeable donation to Kiravia Online in the applicant's name. Proposals for new categorical second-level domains are submitted by the Kiravian Internet Organisation. | Registration of new domains at the third level is accomplished by submission of a request to Registrar.kr, a project of Kiravia Online.

Domains under .kr must consist of Latin letters, Arabic numerals, and basic Latin punctuation. Latin letters and diacritics used in the standard Romanisation of Kiravic (e.g. á, þ, ē, ɣ, æ) or in Lusonic or Kiravian Gaelic are included. Ordinary domain names must be between 3 and 29 characters in length, though two-character and 30-33 character names may be granted by special petition. | Domains under .kr must consist of Latin letters, Arabic numerals, and basic Latin punctuation.

==Restrictions== | |||
Under the original registration policy of 21175, .kr domains are available to: | |||
*Citizens and other nationals of the Kiravian Federacy | |||
*Corporations, associations, and other entities incorporated or legally operating in the Federacy | |||
In 21190, the policy was extended to allow registrations by | |||
*Entities with a ''bona fide'' Kiravian focus or interest | |||
*Foreign-nexus organisations and services with a transnational, pan-Coscivian market, userbase, or focus | |||
*Pro-Kiravian political or civil society entities operating abroad | |||
In 21197, in order to promote use, Kiravia Online announced that it would be liberalising its registration policy to allow for more foreign registrations, but promised that the 21190 rules would be reīnstated and foreign registrations capped before they became "sufficiently numerous to dilute the Kiravian ethos of the domain." | |||
===Accredited Domains=== | |||
In 21187 the Industrial & Commercial Executive published a white paper on obstacles to the expansion of commercial activity on the internet that identified low levels of trust among Kiravian consumers in paid online services and digital advertising, linked to concerns about fraud, payment security, and lack of regulation. In response, the Kiravian Internet Organisation recommended the nesting of second-level "accredited domains" under .kr, registration under which would be restricted to entities able to document their offline legitimacy and maintain a good record of regulatory compliance. Based on this recommendation, Kiravia Online introduced several categorical subdomains intended for use by certain business sectors (e.g. financial services, healthcare), licensed professions, and verified non-profit institutions. | |||
According to the KIO, the accredited domain programme was successful in increasing consumer confidence and paving the way for the increased internet use and online commerce. Accredited domains remain highly sought after. | |||

Every federal subject of the Kiravian Federacy is granted a three-letter .kr second-level domain identical to its postal abbreviation, (''e.g.'' '''.mrd.kr''' for [[Meridia]], '''.niy.kr''' for [[Niyasca]]). These domains are utilised mostly by government agencies of the federal subjects, municipal governments, and civil society groups with strong local foci. | Every federal subject of the Kiravian Federacy is granted a three-letter .kr second-level domain identical to its postal abbreviation, (''e.g.'' '''.mrd.kr''' for [[Meridia]], '''.niy.kr''' for [[Niyasca]]).
