.SG domain registration requirements

.SG domain registration requirements

.SG is the country code top-level domain for Singapore.

SGNIC (.SG domains Registry) allows registering .COM.SG, .ORG.SG, .NET.SG, .EDU.SG and .PER.SG domains, though at present, it is possible to register only .SG and .COM.SG domain names at Namecheap.

Who can register these domains:

• .SG domains can be registered by any individual or company/business that has a local presence or an agent in Singapore.
• .COM.SG domains can be registered by Singaporean companies/businesses only or entities that have a local presence or an agent in Singapore.
• NOTE: SGNIC does not provide the Registrant with the right to sell, trade, assign or otherwise deal with the domain name registration. Thus, it's not allowed to sell your .SG and .COM.SG domains in Marketplace due to Registry restrictions.

SGNIC requires that all new .SG domain names undergo compulsory verification using SingPass. Verification is to be carried out for the administrative contact of a domain name to verify the identity and contact information of the Registrant.

As an exception under specific conditions, Registrants who are unable to arrange for individuals or organizations possessing a SingPass ID to act as an administrative contact can appoint an organization with a valid SGNICID as the administrative contact.
