The registration of AM.BR, FM.BR and TV.BR its liberalized
There is a change of air in Brazil.
Being one of the countries with more domains registered in Latin America, 1.341.479 according to the last stats, and at the same time a very restrictive country regarding norms for registration, authorizing only Brazilian companies to register domains under .COM.BR. For some weeks Brazil has been experimenting some deep changes from within.
Not long ago there was a radical change in norms for registration of domains in Brazil, now is not only restricted to Brazilian companies but from now on they have also authorized the registration for individuals of Brazil.
This change in norms is impressive since at once the extension .com.br is open for registration for more than 184 million Brazilians revolutionizing the local market of domains.
Additionally, on beginning of July, the extension AM.BR, FM.BR and TV.BR which were restricted to companies in Brazil which were dedicated to the areas of Radio or Television are now open for registration for any corporate body of Brazil.
The before mentioned constitutes a very powerful sign of the liberation of airs that are happening in Brazil and that we hope in the near future it goes beyond boundaries and allow foreign companies to be owners of domains .COM.BR.
On the other hand, this new norm can be seen as an invitation for those foreign companies that are not established in Brazil and that are related to Radio and Television to register their domains AM.BR, FM.BR and TV.BR through their representatives, possibility that, before this change of norms did not exist.
