Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly are .IN domains registered?
.IN domains are typically registered within a few minutes.
What is a .IN domain?
A .IN domain is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for India, ideal for businesses and individuals targeting the local market.
Are there special requirements for registering .IN domains?
Yes. The requirements are: .IN, .CO.IN, .NET.IN, .ORG.IN and .GEN.IN:
Anyone in the world can register an Indian domain. There is no local presence requirement.
Identity verification (required by NIXI, the .IN registry):
The registry verifies the owner of every domain. After you place your order, you will be asked to upload a government-issued ID (individuals) or the company registration certificate (companies), and you tell us your connection to India if you are based abroad — for example a business presence, commercial activity, marketing, digital services, education or culture.
The domain is processed once this information is received, and the contact details on the order must match that document exactly.
Please note:
The registry can audit a domain at any time and ask for this information again. If it is not provided, the registry suspends the domain, and the website and email stop working until it is resolved. Please use your real contact details and a permanent email address: the registry rejects temporary and encrypted email providers such as ProtonMail, Tutanota or Mailinator..
