     Checksheet for Filling in the IP Address Application Form

Using this checksheet, confirm again the contents of the
IP address application form before sending it to JPNIC.

1. Only when sending by ordinary mail

a) Has the form been entered by typing in using a word
   processor, etc.?
b) Have TWO stamped and self-addressed envelopes been
   enclosed with the application?

2. Only when sending by e-mail?

a) The e-mail address for sending the application is
   apply@ip.nic.ad.jp.
b) The e-mail address for sending any questions or inquiries
   on the application is query@ip.nic.ad.jp.
c) When a reply is made to the e-mail address from which the
   application is sent, will such a return mail reach correctly?
   (Although the responses from the Japan Network Information
   Center will be sent to the address specified in the
   application, it is possible that we also refer to the entries
   in the Reply-To or From fields in the e-mail containing
   the application.)

3. In the cases of both e-mail and ordinary mail

a) Have any questions or comments been entered before the
   application form?  (When you have any questions or inquiries,
   either enter them in the [備考](Remarks) field, or in a
   separate sheet of paper (in a separate e-mail).)
b) Have all the keywords been correctly entered?  Are there
   no alterations?
c) Has the application date been entered?
d) Have all the entries been made correctly in the fields
   requiring English language entries?
e) Have the entries been made correctly in the fields of the
   administrative contact and the technical contact?  In
   particular, have any entries such as "Same", etc., been
   made when these two persons are the same?
f) Have the name entries in English been made in the reverse
   order?  (The correct order is family name first and then
   the first name.)
g) Has only one comma been used as the delimiter in the entries
   for the names in English?  Is a comma missing?
h) Is the entry made in the [電子メイル](e-mail Address) field
   a valid address that can be used at present?
i) It is not possible to omit the entries in the fields of
   [ネットワーク省略名](Network Abbreviated Name) and
   [ネットワーク総称名](Network Full Name).  In addition, the
   lengths of the entries in these two fields is limited to 12 and
   20 ASCII characters, respectively.  Furthermore, there should
   be no spaces in the former entry.  Have all these restrictions
   been followed?
