.net.nz
A .net.nz domain is the country code domain for New Zealand, and it sits under the .nz country code. It is operated by .NZ Registry Services, which is part of InternetNZ. Because it belongs to New Zealand, a .net.nz domain is a familiar choice for people and organisations with a connection to the country.
The registry supports DNSSEC, so your domain can be signed to help protect the DNS records that point to your website and email. You can register internationalised names with non-Latin characters, and your name can be between 1 and 63 characters long. You do not need a local presence in New Zealand to register one.
A .net.nz domain suits you when your audience is in New Zealand or you want a clear local identity. Before you register, check the term you want, because registrations run for at least one year and renew one year at a time.
Registration is open to anyone.
- Registrants can be individuals or organisations, from anywhere in the world.
- You do not need a New Zealand presence to register a .net.nz domain.
- Your contact details must be accurate, as the registry may check them.
You should renew before the expiry date to keep your name.
- After expiry there is a 30-day grace period in which you can still renew your domain.
- Renewals are made in one year increments.
- Your domain is released after the grace period if it has not been renewed.
You can transfer an existing .net.nz domain to Domain Central from another provider.
- You will need the UDAI authorisation code from your current provider.
- A transfer is usually completed within a day once the UDAI code is supplied.
- A transfer does not change the expiry date of your domain.
The registrant of a .net.nz domain can be changed.
- A change of registrant does not change the term of the domain.
- The expiry date stays the same after the change.
