How to register a Saudi domain?

For more information regarding the required steps for registering a Saudi domain name, please referee to the user guide of the service, from supporting documents section.

A domain name is a series of letters, numbers and some special characters, which together represent a form legible and easy to remember. It is used to determine a website on the internet, which is used as a readable alternative from an IP address that is used effectively to identify sites and directing Internet traffic.

The Internet Domain Name System (DNS) is a set of distributed databases containing IP addresses and their corresponding domain names. Each domain name is mapped to a particular numeric address. DNS, with servers located all over the Internet, performs the translation back and forth between names and numbers.

Based in the current internet protocol it is almost impossible to publish a website working in a normal way without a domain name.

A typical .sa domain name consists of two or three parts (labels) separated by (.) and looks like: .sa or . .sa Where can be one of the 2nd level top domains, such as: .com.sa, net.sa, org.sa, edu.sa, gov.sa, ..etc. A label can contain any combination of letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), and a hyphen (-). It’s length between 2 and 63 characters long.

The (.sa) is the country code Top Level Domain (ccTLD) designated for domain names in Saudi Arabia. While (.com) is a generic Top Level Domain (gTLDs) that is open for commercial entities and others world-wide. The policies and administration of the (.sa) domain name are set and managed by SaudiNIC in CST. While gTLDs are managed by ICANN.

No, you only need to provide the two name servers that are hosting your domain name from DNS point of view, and have your domain registered. All this does not require having your web-site ready.

Saudi domains names are valid for up to ten years.

Yes, please check cloud DNS page.

The administrative contact should be a person who can speak on behalf of the Applicant and he should be from the organization requesting the domain name. He/she should be located in KSA. He/she should be able to contact solutions by stc and change any information for the registered domain name.

1. The account holder for the domain requests (auth-code) for the domain. 2. The registrant provides the accredited registrar with the auth-code. 3. Transfer request is submitted electronically to SaudiNIC.

It depends on the nature of your organization. (Check Eligibility conditions for registration, in supporting documents section)

One of the following should be true for an Applicant requesting domain name registration under SA domain:• An entity physically located in Saudi Arabia. • A natural person, not underage, with a Saudi national identification card or equivalent document issued by the Ministry of Interior of Saudi Arabia. • An entity with a registration or license issued by a pertinent authority in Saudi Arabia. • An owner of a trademark or trade name that is registered in Saudi Arabia.

Individuals can register under the following domains (pub.sa, .sa, or .السعودية) personal names, as expressed in the regulations as follows: “Individuals may register personal names, whether first or family name (e.g., Ahmad, Ali or Alfulani). The chosen name should be followed by at least one numerical digit. Combining two or more names together is allowed without using numerical digits.” To clarify this, let us assume the following example where the Person Name is : (أحمد الفلاني ) Ahmad Alfulani : Acceptable Examples: ahmad7.pub.sa alfulani01.sa أحمد7.السعودية ahmadalfulani.pub.sa أحمد-الفلاني.السعودية Unacceptable Examples: أحمد.السعودية الفلاني.السعودية ahmad.sa alfulani.sa

Check the payment information of your account and make sure it is up to date, and for expired domain names, they are applicable to restore in the first 30 days after expiration, for more information on how to restore, please refer to the user guide in the supporting documents section.

You can click on domain details to view the feedback we sent after reviewing the registration request, and one of the common reasons for rejection is not demonstrating a clear relation between the domain name and registrant information, for more information please visit https://help.nic.sa/en/registrant-domain-relationship-criteria

You can pay through Visa or MasterCard, and after any purchase, please check your digital agreement signing day date from your account dashboard in bluvalt, as on that day of the purchase month, we will send you the due invoices, and we will deduct the amount for the added payment card.

We support Visa and MasterCard payment cards

In auto-renewal, your domain name will be automatically renewed every year without any further action required from your side.

The administrative contact can click the link in the emails we send before domain name renewal, to prevent the domain from being renewed.

Because of factors like its shorter length, memorability, keyword relevancy, or brandability, a premium domain name is worth more than a standard domain name.

Due to their increased demand, improved brand recognition, and increased potential to increase website traffic, premium domain names are more costly.
