Nigeria Domain Registration Form

 

This online form was created by the Nigerian Computer Society. Please note, the society DOES NOT have anything to do with domain registrations, we have ONLY provided this form to make it easier for you to register domain names. ()

Try our new Nigeria domain name registration manager

To register non .NG domain names (.com/.net/.org etc) try: Domain name registration and Domain name lookup / whois

ALL FIELDS MARKED (*) FROM 1-7 ARE REQUIRED. COMPLETE REQUIRED FIELDS FOR 8-9, 10 or 11-12 IF APPLICABLE

Note that two problems are the most common causes for rejection of applications.

  • Per RFC 2182, at least one secondary nameserver must be on a different international backbone than the primary server.
  • Registrations must be from organizations with a real presence in the country and with a demonstrable intent to use the domain name on a regular basis on the internet (i.e. vanity, placemark, ... name registration is not appropriate). For trademark registration, see the trademark office.
