WHAT IS A .COM.RO DOMAIN

.com.ro Domain: Romania's Commercial Second-Level Zone

.com.ro sits beneath .ro, the country extension of Romania, and is a zone operated by the registry itself. It is run under the name «RoTLD» by ICI Bucharest, the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics. In the registry's registration rules the zone is defined in a single line: «.com.ro pentru firme, produse sau servicii de natură comercială» — for commercial firms, products and services. That is a statement of intended use, not a nationality condition.

There is an easy way to verify it: RoTLD's own WHOIS service shows the com.ro label as its own property — the registrar field reads «Registru .ro», and the name is protected by delete, transfer and update locks. So you are registering into a genuine registry-operated zone, not beneath a name in private hands such as .co.ro. The eligibility rule is the same as for .ro: any legal or natural person may apply, regardless of the country they are in.

In practice .com.ro is a second field to work in once the short .ro names have gone: same registry, same rules, same renewal calendar, different pool of names. No documents are required; in the rules a document is asked for only in .tm.ro, the zone reserved for trade marks. Compare in one pass whether your brand is taken on the .ro side and open on the .com.ro side with domain search.

The renewal calendar is shared with .ro: The annual registration and maintenance system RoTLD introduced on 1 March 2018 covers the whole .ro tree, so .com.ro names are likewise registered or renewed for a minimum of one year and a maximum of ten. If the annual maintenance fee goes unpaid the name enters «pendingDelete», stops resolving for that period and is deleted after 90 days. If you hold the .ro and .com.ro names of the same brand, track both expiry dates on the same calendar — they renew separately.

Active registration term 1 - 10 years You choose it at registration
Grace period 90 days First window to renew after expiry

What happens day by day after it expires

Day 0 is the domain's expiry date

In short: for .com.ro 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.ro, 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.ro 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 .com.ro Domains

The questions people actually ask before registering — answered plainly.

  • The eligibility rule is shared across the whole .ro tree: any legal or natural person may register, regardless of the country they are in. There is no residency requirement in Romania, no local address, no local contact person and no trustee arrangement. The zone's own restriction is about purpose rather than nationality: the rules attach .com.ro to commercial firms, products and services.

  • Yes, and it can be verified from the registry's own records. RoTLD's rules page lists the zone by name, and the registry's WHOIS service shows the com.ro label with the registrar field reading «Registru .ro», protected by delete, transfer and update locks. That is the technical signature of a zone the registry operates itself. For contrast, .co.ro appears in the same WHOIS under a commercial registrar and without those locks.

  • No. In RoTLD's registration rules a document requirement is attached only to .tm.ro, the zone reserved for registered trade marks, where proof from a trade mark register is required. For .com.ro and the other zones what is asked for is an accurate and complete application form. The registry reserves the right to seek confirmation that the information given is genuine, but that is not a paperwork condition applied up front.

  • The annual registration and maintenance system RoTLD introduced on 1 March 2018 covers the whole .ro tree, so .com.ro names are registered or renewed for a minimum of one year and a maximum of ten. If the annual maintenance fee goes unpaid the name enters «pendingDelete», stops resolving for that period and is deleted automatically after 90 days, returning to general availability.

  • The rule is the same across the .ro tree: a name may run to 63 characters excluding the suffix; the allowed characters are a-z, A-Z, 0-9 and the hyphen; and a name may neither begin nor end with a hyphen. Romanian diacritics (ă, â, î, ş, ţ) have also been usable since 2 June 2015. Spellings with and without diacritics count as separate names, so securing both means making two registrations.

  • The procedure is shared across the .ro tree, and RoTLD does not decide disputes itself. They go to two accredited providers: WIPO and Forum. The procedure follows the UDRP framework and requires the complainant's prior right, the holder's lack of rights or legitimate interests and the bad-faith element to be shown together. Where the complaint succeeds, the right of use passes to the complainant after 10 business days.

  • Registry, eligibility rule, term and dispute procedure are identical. The difference lies in two places. First, intended use: .ro is unrestricted, while the rules attach .com.ro to commercial activity. Second, the pool of names: .ro has been in use since 1993 and its short names are largely gone, whereas the same name may still be free on the .com.ro side.
