# What Is a Saudi Domain? Extensions, Requirements and How to Register

**In short:** A Saudi domain ends with a Saudi extension such as .sa, .com.sa or .السعودية, and is managed by the Saudi Network Information Center. It gives your business website and email an official Saudi identity and more trust. You register it through an accredited registrar such as Hyyat Host by submitting the required documents (such as a commercial registration) and verifying your identity through Nafath. Our price is SAR 99 per year for all extensions.

## What is a Saudi domain?

A Saudi domain is a website address ending with a Saudi extension, such as **.sa**, **.com.sa**, **.net.sa**, **.org.sa** or **.السعودية**. It represents a Saudi identity online and shows that the site belongs to a business or organization in the Kingdom.

## Why register a Saudi domain for your business?

- **More trust:** customers know the site belongs to an official Saudi business.
- **Professional email:** your messages come from your Saudi domain (for example info@company.com.sa).
- **Name protection:** registration rules protect the rightful owner and limit registering names just to sell them.

## Who manages Saudi domains?

The Saudi Network Information Center is responsible for the Saudi extensions and their registration rules, and registration is done through accredited registrars. Applying does not guarantee approval: eligibility for the requested name is checked.

## What do you need?

- An official document linking you to the requested name, such as a commercial registration, a trademark certificate or a license.
- Identity verification of the applicant through **Nafath**.
- Correct contact details, and nameservers to connect the domain to your hosting.
