About 10 years ago I contacted Verisign to request if they had a list
of registrars that support their new registry service.

They wrote "Verisign does not have an official list, but I compiled an
unofficial one that I have attached to this email for your perusal."

The other thing is each registrar have their own pricing; Verisign is
not aware if their pricing,  and the registrars that have the service
don't necessarily advertise it.     In some cases it could be a
multiple hundreds of dollars per year or more service that you needed
to price quote with the registrar in advance.

If you have a domain registrar in mind;  I would suggest emailing
their customer service to ask if they support the Registry lock, and
if they have established pricing for it.


So here's what I was given  10 years ago with the caveat that there is
no official list of registrars supporting the service.
