About the .DM domain
What is the .DM domain?
Registration is open to anyone or any entity, both inside and outside the Commonwealth of Dominica, with no domicile requirements or need for a registered trademark. The most notable feature of this extension is an unusual and very specific content restriction: the registry expressly REJECTS any domain application related to banking, fintech services, or cryptocurrencies. In addition, registering names containing the word "Dominica" requires a special procedure in collaboration with the country's Ministry of National Security and Legal Affairs. As an added benefit, registering a .dm domain grants the right to use the same name under .com.dm, .net.dm, and .org.dm at no additional cost.
Registration is open to anyone or any entity, inside or outside the Commonwealth of Dominica, with no domicile or trademark requirements. However, the registry expressly REJECTS applications related to banking, fintech services, and cryptocurrencies, and the name "Dominica" requires special processing with the Ministry of National Security and Legal Affairs.
