We are currently able to assist in the registration of .cn domain names without an ICP license. The domain can be used with our international hosting packages (US, UK, Singapore or Hong Kong). The .cn is still however still restricted to Chinese companies. The application takes seven days and the following documents must be provided (scans of the originals):
-Enterprise license code certificate (mainland China-registered company)
-ID card (must be Chinese national)

Chinese domain names registration is now restricted to local Chinese companies. Foreign registrars which used to resell .cn domains are now prevented to do so, and Chinese registrars do not accept foreign applicants for these domains.
The law that prevented individuals to register .cn has been somewhat waived on February 8th. However, it appears applicants, who must be Chinese citizens, must show up in person with the ID card and photo, to the CNNIC office or their service provider for “authentication” before they are able to register their domains.

We have been informed by our dot cn registrar of new regulations issued by the CNNIC (the organization in charge of the management of the dot cn registry). The new regulations do not affect domain names registered prior to this announcement.
In brief, first dot cn domain names (which include .cn, .com.cn , .net.cn, .org.cn, as well as regional extensions such as .sh.cn , .gd.cn, .bj.cn etc.) will now be available for registration only for registered companies (Chinese or foreign). Second, upon registration, the applicant need to file and send through the registrar a paper application, and join to this application a copy of his business license and a copy of his ID (ID card for Chinese nationals and passport for foreigners). The paper application needs to bear the official seal of the applying company.
For more details on these new rules, please check this link on the CNNIC official website.
Considering that the new regulations increase the work load to process a dot cn registration, we have decided to increase the registration price by RMB50, to RMB125/year. They will still be included for free though with our web hosting packages.

We are proud to announce the launch of our newly redesigned website www.sinohosting.net ; it is an improvement from the previous design, and has been conceived with usability in mind, to ensure easy navigation by users and visitors.
Major changes includes:
-Updates to our VPS and China hosting plans. China plans now include free domain name and ICP license registration. Number of plans have been reduced from 5 to 3 and match in terms of disk space our international plans. Old clients are not affected though they can continue on their current plans and renew at same prices.
-Introduction of dedicated server plans. We used to offer dedicated server on a custom order basis only, but now we have four different server solutions available for clients to choose.
–China server colocation and hosted exchange email solutions have also been added to our offerings.
-We have revamped our online support system, clients and prospects will now be able to open support tickets directly from our website which will yield faster response times than our support email.
We have also added new domain extensions (.eu, .me etc.), web design services, etc. More will be announced in the next few days, including our affiliate program, the first of its kind among web hosts in China, and for which you can already sign up.
