WHAT IS A .CO.IM DOMAIN

.co.im Domain: the Isle of Man's Commercial Third Level

.co.im is one of the third-level namespaces the Isle of Man registry offers under .im, and it appears explicitly among the nine suffixes listed as open for registration on the registry's own order page today. The rules are not separate: the Rules of Registration of 5 July 2023, the Terms and Conditions of 26 July 2018 and the IM DRP are shared with .im. The namespace even has sub-levels of its own — ltd.co.im and plc.co.im appear on the same list.

The technical structure was measured: co.im has no separate zone record, and its names are served from inside the .im zone itself. There is no eligibility requirement either; rule 3.2 does not restrict who may apply, which names may be held or how many. Occupancy is more relaxed than in .im: on 13 August 2026 shop.co.im, mail.co.im and test.co.im were all registered. Check your candidate on the domain search page.

What happens day by day after it expires

Day 0 is the domain's expiry date

In short: for .co.im 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 .co.im, 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 .co.im 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 - 10 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.

Domain Is Available Again

Open-ended

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 .co.im Domains

The questions people actually ask before registering — answered plainly.

  • Yes, and the source is the registry's own order page: it lists the suffixes the public can register one by one, and .co.im appears there alongside .im, .net.im, .org.im, .ac.im, .com.im, .gov.im, .ltd.co.im and .plc.co.im. The registry's older FAQ from 2010 gave a shorter list; the current source is the order page, and measurement confirms it.

  • No. The namespace follows the same rulebook as .im, and rule 3.2 does not restrict who may apply, which names may be held or how many; applications are accepted first come, first served. No company, address or representative on the Island is required. The registry may only request information about your legal identity where needed and may review the application before or after registration.

  • There is no difference in the rules: the same Rules of Registration, the same 1-2-5-10 year term set, the same restricted-word regime and the same IM DRP apply. The difference is in the pool of names — direct .im is more crowded. One technical detail matters too: co.im has no separate zone record, its names are served from inside the .im zone, so there is no zone-specific DNS configuration.

  • They are sub-levels listed as separate suffixes on the registry's order page, meaning you can build an address as company.ltd.co.im or company.plc.co.im. The Rules of Registration attach no separate eligibility clause to these suffixes, but the registry notes on the order page that restrictions apply to some names, and names connected to regulated activities can be referred to the government.

  • The chain is identical to .im. Expiry notices go to all contacts 60, 30, 5 and 1 day in advance; on the expiry date the name is de-listed from the .im name servers and the address stops resolving. One month later the name becomes available to any party, and renewal remains possible during that window. Registration terms are fixed at 1, 2, 5 and 10 years, with no intermediate option.
