With an increasing number of businesses conducted online, China
attracts a growing number of entrepreneurs seeking for new
opportunities. However, when looking into registering their domain
names, they often encounter the problem that their Chinese domain
names (such as .cn and .com.cn) have already been registered by
somebody else, putting in danger their marketing strategies in
China. If such situation arises, instead of approaching the
squatters for a potential purchase, foreign companies willing to
protect their rights could consider reclaiming their Chinese
domains (within two years of the domain name's registration)
through the Chinese authorities. The process described below is
much smoother than you would expect and also sends a strong message
to any future squatters of your Company's IP rights.
