Complete Filing for a Domain

For a mainland deployment that requires filing, follow the steps below if your custom domain has not been filed yet.

International site

ICP filing is not required to connect a custom domain on the international site. See Custom Domain for domain ownership verification, DNS configuration, and HTTPS setup.

Step 1: Prepare Tencent Cloud Resources That Support ICP Filing​

In addition to a CloudBase environment, you can also purchase other Tencent Cloud products to obtain filing authorization:

  • CloudBase environment (Personal Plan or above, validity > 6 months, fixed IP enabled)
  • Lighthouse (monthly subscription of 3 months or more)
  • CVM (monthly subscription with public bandwidth, 3 months or more)

Step 2: Complete the ICP Filing Process​

  1. Log in to the Tencent Cloud ICP Filing Console.
  2. Select your filing resource (such as a CloudBase environment), and fill in the entity information and website/app information.
  3. Upload the required qualification materials and complete real-name verification (such as facial recognition).
  4. Submit the application for preliminary review. Once Tencent Cloud approves it, the system will help you submit it to the provincial Communications Administration for review.
  5. Wait for the Communications Administration review. Once approved, you will receive an ICP filing number. This usually takes 1 to 20 working days, depending on the province.

Step 3: Bind the Filed Domain in CloudBase​

  1. After the filing is approved, return to the CloudBase console.
  2. In the left navigation pane, select HTTP Gateway.
  3. Add your custom domain and configure CNAME resolution to the address provided by CloudBase.
Tip

In addition to managing domains centrally in the HTTP Gateway, you can also add a filed custom domain directly from the detail page of a specific cloud function / CloudRun / static hosting. The two entry points are equivalent — all added domains are listed and managed in the HTTP Gateway.
