About the .DJ domain
What is the .DJ domain?
It is an extension with no significant registration restrictions: it requires no local presence, company registered in the country, or VAT number, making it accessible to a global audience. This openness, combined with its two letters directly matching the abbreviation "DJ" — disc jockey — has made it a particularly popular extension among DJs, music producers, and electronic music platforms worldwide, far beyond its original geographic use. The regulations do reserve some names under priority rights for recognized trademarks, and require domains not to infringe third-party rights or violate Djibouti's cultural, religious, or social values. It currently does not support DNSSEC or internationalized domain names (IDN).
