Can I register a .com.au, co.uk, .de domain name from another country?

As a US-based Internet Service company, We deal directly with ICANN authorized Registries that are allowed to issue .COM, .NET, and .ORG gTLD (generic Top Level Domain) domains. Because there are no special residence requirements or restrictions that limit domain registrations in these topdomains to just businesses and organizations, we can register such domain names for anyone. You do not have to be a US Citizen or be a business to reserve a gTLD domain.

Many countries, however, either have residency requirements or limit domain reservations in their topdomain to businesses only. Some do both. Others still have not implemented automated registrations systems and still register domains by hand. So, our automated reservation system cannot interact with their systems. For these reasons, we do not perform the domain registration of domains that are not generic ourselves. However, we can park your foreign domain and program our nameservers so that you can submit your registration for your domain in your own country.

If you can work with the NIC in your country to make its root servers point to our name servers for your domain, then we can provide DNS support to your domain, even if it's a foreign one.

Another option is to work with us to prepare the application form to your country's NIC. We will be more than happy to setup the DNS and then mail the completed form to your country's NIC for you.

Either way, please fill out our online sign-up form to request our services. You may wish to do so as soon as you are positive that you know how to handle the registration process for your country. This form will help us greatly in our system preparation and our automated process should reduce any possible errors, speeding up the entire process.

After all the above is completed, we can park your domain or host your Web site using domain names with your country's ISO code. More than ten percent of Web sites hosted by us are of this type.
