Frequently asked questions about .nyc.

How do I buy a .nyc domain?
To purchase your domain name, you must first search for the availability of the unique phrase (without spaces or with hyphens). If the domain name is available, you may then add it to the cart to register for up to 10 years. If the .nyc generic domain is not available, then either modify your phrase, or inquire about purchasing the name outright through 101domain's Domain Concierge Service.
Are there requirements, documents, or information needed for .nyc?

Registrants must be either:
a) a natural person whose primary place of domicile is a valid physical address in the City of New York; or
b) an entity or organization that has a physical street address in the City of New York.
Registrant must remain in compliance with this requirement for the entire period of such domain name’s registration.
A P.O. Box address in the City of New York does not satisfy this requirement and proxy services are not allowed.

In addition, the registrant must be in compliance with all relevant Federal, New York State and New York City laws including the tax requirements for conducting business via the Internet.
Failure to comply with any of the above requirements may ultimately result in deletion of the domain name if event that proof of compliance is not provided.
