About .tc Domain Names
The following services for .tc and .vg domain names are disabled until further notice: New registrations, transfers (both to us and away from us), and renewals.
Once the issues are resolved by the registry, we'll restore these services.
The .tc country code top-level domain name (ccTLD) is an extension that represents the Turks and Caicos Islands. For companies that conduct business in that area and individuals who want to reach the growing number of Internet users there, .tc domain names are a good investment. Registering a .tc domain name gives you regional recognition and an easy-to-manage Web presence.
Anyone can register .tc domain names on a first-come, first-served basis.
Domain names can be up to 63 characters, with a minimum of three characters, and can contain letters (a to z), numbers (0 to 9), and hyphens (except at the beginning or end of the domain name). You cannot register domain names with special characters, such as & and #.
The minimum and maximum registration length for .tc domain names is 1 year.
Your .tc domain name renews before its expiration date. The renewal date depends on whether the domain name is auto-renewed or renewed manually. Auto-renewal is attempted on the first day of the month prior to the domain name's expiration date. If the renewal attempt fails, we re-attempt renewal on the 10th of the month and again on the 20th of the month.
If we cannot auto-renew the domain name and you do not manually renew it by the 20th of the month prior to the expiration date, it must be redeemed. There might be a fee for the redemption. See Recovering Expired Domain Names for instructions on the redemption.
For example: Your .tc domain name expires on October 10. If your domain name does not renew automatically, you can renew it manually by September 20. For automatic renewals, we attempt to renew the domain name on September 1, September 10, and September 20.
We do not currently support the transfer of .tc domain names to us.
Neither privacy nor domain name protection are available for .tc domain names.
We do not currently support the backorder of .tc domain names.
Yes, but there are limitations. When the domain name is moved, the registrant's first name, last name, and company name cannot be changed.
For changes to the registrant information on your .tc domain name, please contact our support team for assistance.
Changes to all other domain name contacts can be made through the Domain Manager. See Updating Your Domain Name Contact Information for information on this process.
Any valid nameservers may be used with .tc domain names. You can enter a maximum of 4 nameservers per domain name.
