FridayHost requires a written authority letter from the current domain registrant (domain owner, not their agent or technical contact) on their letterhead under their official seal. For Pakistani nationals, a copy of the CNIC of the company head or director is also required. Please specify the account information in the authority letter, from which domain need to be transferred and the account to whom you intend to transfer the domain.
If, due to some reason, the registrant name (fully or partially) does not match with officially used emblem (i-e on company letter) then an affidavit in the proper format is also required with the official authorization letter. The affidavit must comply to the legal requirements such as stamp paper (worth Rs. 100), and attested by oath commissioner.
If, the domain registrant is an individual then an affidavit in the proper format is required. The affidavit must comply to the legal requirements such as stamp paper (worth Rs. 100), and attested by oath commissioner.
This is to satisfy the requirement of the authorization and documentation of domain transfers.
GOV.PK is used primarily for the Federal Government of Pakistan. For provincial domains, the name space of GOP.PK for Govt. of Punjab, GOS.PK for Sindh, GOB.PK for Baluchistan, GKP.PK for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, GOG for Gilgit Baltistan and GOK.PK for Azad Jammu & Kashmir are used.
In certain circumstances a GOV.PK may be used for a high level Provincial Department, that is unique in the province, if the name of the province is prominent in the domain name (e.g. Punjab-Police.gov.pk, etc).
To avoid inappropriate use of government domain names, the .gov.pk domain names are kept inactive after registration. For activation of the GOV domains, following requirements apply:
A letter of authorization signed by the Head of the government organization (or properly delegated authority).
Authorization letter must be on the original official stationary/letterhead (no photocopies or laser printed letterheads).
A CNIC copy of the authority signing the authorization letter.
The domain will be activated upon verification of the received documents.
Domain registrant for .edu.pk domain extensions must be a bona fide educational institute, with size-able active students enrollment and the name of the registrant institute must reflect in the domain name. Therefore, for moderation purposes, the .edu.pk domain names are kept inactive after registration.
For activation of the EDU domain, following requirements apply:
A letter of authorization signed by the Principal/Head of the institute on institute’s original stationary letterhead (no photocopies or laser printed letterheads).
A proof/claim of being a registered and active educational institute (i-e copy of registration documents with a government education body etc).
A CNIC copy of the authority signing the authorization letter.
The domain will be activated upon verification of the received documents.

- For second level .PK domains, the minimum length for the domain name, exclusive of the .pk portion is four characters (e.g. abcd.pk). A four character name before .pk can not start with one of the PKNIC second level sub-domains (e.g. com, net, org, gov, gop, etc.). For example the following domain names are not acceptable: (coms.pk, comm.pk, nets.pk, net2.pk, govs.pk, etc).

Exceptions can be made for longer names who’s meaning are not easily confused with government or educational functions.
- For third level .COM.PK, etc domains, the minimum domain name of one character are allowed (e.g. a.com.pk). The label “pk” and all the second level suffix names are reserved for these domain types (e.g. can not register pk.com.pk, net.com.pk, com.com.pk, gov.com.pk, etc).
