About the .KI domain

What is the .KI domain?

.ki is the country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) of Kiribati, a Central Pacific archipelago, registered with IANA on April 19, 1995, and managed by the Ministry of Information, Communications and Transport (MICT) on the CoCCa registry platform.

Registration has minimal requirements: individuals and legal entities from any country can register a .ki domain with no local presence in Kiribati required. Names must be between 1 and 63 characters, with no support for internationalized domain names (IDN), and typical application processing is 24 hours. However, certain second-level subdomains — .gov.ki, .edu.ki, and .org.ki — do have restrictions and are reserved for specific entities within Kiribati. The standard registration period is one year.
