About .tv

A .tv domain is the country code domain for Tuvalu, a Pacific island nation. Its registry is operated by the Ministry of Transport, Energy, Communications and Innovations of Tuvalu, which is the government body behind the extension. The name has long been promoted as a nod to television, so the extension is often chosen by people in video, broadcasting, streaming and online media.

A .tv domain is a good choice when the name fits your video, television or media work, or when you want a short, memorable address. Before you register, check that your chosen name suits your audience, and confirm that the registry’s rules meet your needs.

Registration of a .tv domain is open to anyone.

  • You do not need a local presence in Tuvalu to register.
