Mandatory identity verification for .hr and .com.hr domains
Starting in 2025, a condition for successful registration of .hr and .com.hr domains is verification of the domain owner’s data, which means that the user is required to provide evidence that the owner’s data entered when ordering the domain is correct.
You can read details about the verification process below.
Why do I have to prove that my information is correct?
According to the Cybersecurity Act , published on February 7, 2024, the Registry and registrars of .hr domains are obliged to determine the exact identity of domain users during registration based on secure and credible systems and data sources, i.e. to verify users.

The verification process in MyDataKnox is performed after payment of the offer upon completion of the domain order.
After paying for the offer, the MyDataKnox system starts a verification process consisting of three steps:
- You will receive an email to your email address with a link to verify your ordered .hr and .com.hr domains.
- When opening the link, you are allowed to select the document you want to attach as proof of identity.
- After you attach the document, a PDF statement will be generated with an overview of your information as the domain owner and the document attached in the previous step.
- By clicking the confirm button, your verification is saved in the MyDataKnox system.
- MyDataKnox support confirms or rejects the verification.
- If the verification is confirmed, your domain is registered and the verification process is complete.
In case of verification rejection, you will receive an email stating the reason for the rejection and a new link to repeat the verification process.
What documents can I use for verification?
The attached document must be one of the following:
PERSONS
- ID card (both sides)
- passport

In case of unsuccessful verification, MyDataKnox will refund the amount paid for the domain, and the domain will not be registered.
- I clicked on the verification link, but I got the message “Your verification token has expired”
If you see a token expiration message, it means that more than 72 hours have passed since the verification email was sent and you need to request a new verification.
Simply click on the “Request New Verification” button and the process will start over
- I attached a document, but I received the message “Invalid file format. Allowed formats are: …”
If you see this message, it means that the attached document is in a format that we do not accept.
Simply return to the verification form and attach the document in an allowed format.
Allowed formats are listed in the document submission form, and certainly include JPEG and PNG formats.
- What information do I need to confirm during the verification process?
The information that is confirmed by your acceptance of the information on the generated PDF statement is: Name and surname, address, e-mail address, OIB (Croatian Tax Identification Number), and phone number.

What is DNS?
In simple terms, we could describe a DNS as a domain address book. Just like you would use an address book to look up information related to a particular person or company by name, the same goes for domains, since they also have an “address”.

Afterwards, your computer requests the IP address of our web server, which, finally, sends the web page to your browser.
To summarise, DNS connects symbolic domain names, such as the mydatakno.com domain, with the IP address of the server where the domain-related content is located.

What are the advantages of the MyDataKnox R1Soft backup?
Our R1Soft backup solutions offers some crucial options:
BACKUP COPY
Whereas conventional backup solutions secure data by storing it on the same server or an external disk, MyDataKnox R1Soft backup keeps your data secure by storing it on enterprise equipment in our data centre.
QUICK DISASTER RECOVERY
Recover the complete server data without a second thought!
Unlike with conventional solutions, MyDataKnox backup eliminates the need for disk partition and installing an operating system before recovering the data from the backup copy. All your files, databases and applications will be restored to the server in perfect shape, like nothing ever happened.
HIGH-LEVEL PERFORMANCE
Sector-based backup increases bandwidth and reduces the server load. The servers can be completely operational and the effect on the performance during backup creation is minimal. Backup copies can be made at any time of day without interrupting the server processes, even on loaded servers.
FAST INCREMENTAL BACKUP
Incremental backup can distinguish which disk sectors have been modified since the last backup and will backup only modified and new data. A smaller amount of backup data makes for a significantly quicker backup process.
HIGH-LEVEL SECURITY
All data is stored and recovered under strong encryption.
What is a domain name and extension?
Every domain consists of a name and an extension.
In the example “mydomain.com”,

A simple example would be “mydataknox” as our domain name.
Domain extensions are related to countries, business operations, activities, etc.
Am example of a country-related extension would be “.hr”, which signifies that the domain is related to Croatia. Some examples of business extensions are “.biz”, “.org” and “.com”.
