WHAT IS A .COM.EG DOMAIN

com.eg Domain: Egypt's Commercial Registration Zone

com.eg is the sub-zone of the Arab Republic of Egypt reserved for the commercial sector, and it has no separate operator: the zone is run by the Egyptian Universities Network (EUN), the same body that runs .eg directly. The registry publishes a table mapping sub-zones to sectors and lists com.eg against «commercial sector»; for document purposes it is grouped under one heading with net.eg and info.eg.

What governs this zone is that the required document depends on where the applicant is established. Companies inside Egypt provide a commercial register record or tax card, plus a copy of the owner's identity card. Companies outside Egypt are asked not for a trade register record but for a trademark matching the name to be registered: the mark must be registered in Egypt, or internationally under the Madrid Agreement at WIPO. The in-country representative requirement applies on top of that.

So for a company established in Türkiye the question is not «do I have a trade register record» but «do I hold a registered trademark matching this name». Without a mark, .eg directly is usually the more reachable route. The registry does not treat foreign applications as exceptional: it publishes a separate tariff open to foreign companies for com.eg, net.eg and info.eg. Check whether your candidate is free on the domain name search page.

The decisive distinction when applying from abroad: The registry's document list puts companies inside and outside Egypt on separate lines, and for the outside case it never mentions a trade register record; the one primary document is a trademark matching the name to be registered. That is the reverse of the practice in some neighbouring countries. Settle two points before you apply: whether your mark is valid in Egypt or through the Madrid system, and how closely the mark matches the name. With both in place, the process moves predictably.

What happens day by day after it expires

Day 0 is the domain's expiry date

In short: for .com.eg the post-expiry timeline is set by the registry, so it differs from one extension to the next. The diagram below shows the windows that actually apply to .com.eg, day by day. One thing never changes, whichever extension you hold: renewing before the expiry date is always the cheapest and safest route.

Domain Is Available (Available)

Open-ended

A .com.eg address at this stage has not been taken yet, and it goes to whoever registers first. Check the name you have in mind — if it is free, it can be yours within minutes.

Domain Is Active (Active Period)

1 - 5 years

Once registration is complete, the domain is registered to you for the term you selected. You can renew at any point before it expires to keep it active, or switch on auto-renewal so you never have to watch the date.

Redemption Period (Redemption Period)

Day 0 – 60

The domain is not released the moment it expires — during this window it is still yours and can be recovered. Some extensions charge an extra restore fee at this stage, so renewing before expiry is always the cheaper route.

Domain Is Available Again

After day 60

Once deletion completes, the domain leaves the system and anyone can register it — popular names are often taken the same minute by someone watching. Keep auto-renewal on so a name you care about never gets this far.

Frequently Asked Questions About .com.eg Domains

The questions people actually ask before registering — answered plainly.

  • No. The registry's document list opens a separate line for companies outside Egypt, so a foreign company can apply directly. That line, however, never mentions a trade register record: the primary document required is a trademark registration matching the name to be registered. On top of that, an authorised representative or agent inside Egypt is required. Incorporating locally, opening a branch or showing a local address is not asked for.

  • The registry recognises two routes: a mark registered in Egypt, or one registered internationally at WIPO under the Madrid Agreement. The text adds a substantive condition: the registration must correspond to the name being registered. Holding a mark does not let you pick any name freely; a workable overlap between the name and the mark is expected. Check the scope and territorial validity of your mark before applying.

  • Look at .eg directly. The registry's zone table opens second-level .eg to «all authorities» and sets the trademark condition only on the com.eg side, for companies outside Egypt. A name under .eg still has to rest on a ground — the entity's name or its field of activity is a sufficient ground — and the in-country representative requirement applies there too. Both zones share the same term and renewal rules.

  • The term rule is shared across the .eg family: a minimum of one year and a maximum of five years, with fees paid in advance for the period requested. A registration can be cancelled before the term ends at the holder's formal request, but the amount paid is not refunded. A longer term is a continuity decision as much as a cost one: it avoids rebuilding the document and representative arrangement every year.

  • The name does not vanish on the due date. The registry states that names renew automatically unless notified otherwise and that the renewal fee is due within one month of expiry; if it is not paid the name is suspended, and during suspension it is not available to anyone else. Only three months after the due date does it become available to the public, without further notice. If you manage it from abroad, keep the notification email address current.

  • Yes. The registry lists this as a ground of its own: a company's product or service name may be registered with evidence that the product actually exists and belongs to the company. Accepted evidence includes a promotional folder, an image of the product, an advertising campaign or any physical image used in promoting it. The applicant also submits a statement confirming that the name belongs to the company.

  • The registry states that all applications are reviewed and that any name failing the policies is rejected. Grounds include generic or misleading names that do not represent the entity or its activity, names causing confusion with other entities, and names conflicting with law. The registry also notes that acceptance does not certify or endorse the documents submitted; if false information or documents come to light later, the registration may be cancelled.

  • The zone is reserved for the commercial sector, and the registry's document list names three applicant types: government entities (commercial register or tax card plus an official letter bearing the eagle seal), companies inside Egypt (commercial register or tax card plus a copy of the owner's identity card), and companies outside Egypt (a trademark registration plus a representative inside the country). For individuals the answer is not com.eg but the registry's personal zones.
