  • A .kz domain name can be registered by any individual or company.
  • It is not allowed to register domains containing propaganda, narcotics, ethnic, and violent names and activities and those against the laws of Kazakhstan are prohibited.
  • Websites - or even a redirect server - must be hosted in Kazakhstan. If KazNIC finds a violation of this rule, they will contact the domain name owner and first block the domain name. If the violation is not corrected, the domain will be deleted within 10 days.

Fulfillment Info

FTLD .kz is a Fulfillment TLD. Fullfilment TLDs (FTLDs) are registered through a manual registration process. The manual registration process might involve documents, depending on respective registry regulations, and are therefore not automated for real-time registrations and real-time updates. Updates might cause additional costs!
