Buy .com.tc Domain Name

To the Turks and Caicos Islands. The .tc extension is the country code of that British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean; in the IANA record its manager is Melrex TC of Providenciales and the administrative contact is the TCI Telecommunications Commission. The link with Türkiye is technical, not legal: the technical contact in the IANA record is a company based in Denizli. Clause 14 of the terms puts disputes under the law of the Turks and Caicos Islands.

No. The terms ask the registrant for no nationality, residence or local legal entity; applications go through the registry's accredited registrars or resellers. In exchange, clause 3.6 does not accept registrations made by third parties on a customer's behalf: the record is opened directly in your name and you appear as the registrant.

Clause 3.4 requires the written consent of the competent authority to be supplied to the registry whenever the name contains that of a county, province, city, district or country; without it the name is not accepted. Clause 3.5 repeats the requirement for officially recognised bodies and authorities, and clause 11.1(d) asks you to warrant that the consent stays valid throughout the term.

Under clause 9.3 there is a thirty-day period after expiry in which the name can be restored to the register; restoration is charged separately. Renewal itself is made by online payment from your account before midnight (GMT+1) on the day the term ends. If the thirty-day window is missed as well, clause 10.1 applies and the name is deleted and released for registration again.

Yes. Clause 7 allows the name to move from the registry to a registrar, from a registrar to the registry, and from one registrar to another. For security the losing registrar issues a transfer code that is notified to the receiving registrar, and only the registrant can start a transfer. No further transfer is possible within thirty days of one being effected. You can begin from the domain transfer page.

Clause 4 of the WHOIS policy lists what is published for legal persons: the registration date, the expiry date, the organisation name where available, and the nameservers. Clause 5 sets out three anti-mining measures: a query is gated by a verification code, multi-criteria search is not possible, and at most five domain names may be retrieved from the same IP address within sixty minutes. You can run queries from the whois lookup page.

Clause 10.3 allows the agreement to be terminated immediately and without prior notice if it comes to the registry's attention that spam is being sent from the domain. Clause 10.4 lists the grounds for termination or suspension on seven days' written notice: use detrimental to the operation of the top level domain, breach of the terms, failure to keep contact details accurate, use likely to confuse internet users, and legal action being commenced over the name.
