.asia
A .asia domain is a generic top-level domain for Asia and the Pacific. It is operated by DotAsia Organisation Ltd. The extension is open to companies, individuals and organisations around the world who have a connection to the region.
The registry supports DNSSEC, which helps protect your domain from certain types of tampering with its DNS records. Registrations run for 1 to 10 years, with a minimum term of 1 year. Internationalised domain names are allowed, and you do not need a local presence in the region to register.
A .asia domain suits you if your business or project serves customers in Asia or the Pacific. Before you register, check that you meet the connection requirement and that your contact details are accurate and kept current.
