[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2024-1: Definition of Organization ID/Org ID

Thu Feb 1 11:36:43 EST 2024

Matthew,

Individuals may as “Sole Proprietors” receive resources from ARIN for use in the operation of their business operations. Some states require registration of a Sole Proprietorship, some do not. If the Sole Proprietor has a d/b/a that will be listed in ARIN’s Whois. Otherwise, the customer is informed that the Whois record will be listed as “Their Name, Sole Proprietor”. This draft policy is not making any changes to that.

Thanks,
John Sweeting
ARIN CCO

“An Organizational Identifier (Org ID) is a record that represents a business, non-profit corporation, or government entity in the ARIN database. An entity must have an Organizational Identifier (Org ID) to request Internet Number Resources.”

So are we proposing here that individuals may no longer request Internet Number Resources?

For clarity, I will restate the entire message.

Draft Policy ARIN-2024-1: Definition of Organization ID/Org ID

Problem Statement:

During work on a related policy proposal, the NRPM Working Group determined that a definition of Organization Identifier (Org ID) should be included in the NRPM to add clarity to the term and unify NRPM references to match the use of the term in other ARIN publications such as ARIN online.

Policy Statement:

Current: None

Proposed:

Section 2.18 Organizational Identifier (Org ID)

An Organizational Identifier (Org ID) is a record that represents a business, non-profit corporation, or government entity in the ARIN database. An entity must have an Organizational Identifier (Org ID) to request Internet Number Resources.

Comments:

This definition had previously been included in an earlier policy proposal (ARIN-2023-7), but community feedback recommendations on that proposal showed a preference for adding the definition separately from that proposal. As such the definition is now being proposed as a standalone proposal, and the language will be removed from the current ARIN-2023-7 proposal, allowing the two sections of that proposal to be evaluated separately.

Timetable for Implementation: Immediate
