Decision under '.nl' Dispute Resolution Regulations show that UDRP precedents serve as important source of reference

In a recent domain name dispute before WIPO, a German toy manufacturer has obtained the transfer of a ‘.nl’ domain name identically reproducing its trademark under the Dispute Resolution Regulations for ‘.nl’ Domain Names. The decision shows that, whilst many ccTLDs have adopted their own domain name dispute resolution policies, UDRP precedents and principles are an important source of reference.
