About the .KM domain
What is the .KM domain?
It is one of the extensions with the most elaborate category structure in the system: direct second-level registration (.km) is reserved for companies and trademark holders, subject to restrictions and local presence requirements. The .com.km subdomain is the unrestricted option, open to companies from any country in the world as long as the name is not already registered elsewhere under .km; .nom.km, however, is reserved exclusively for residents of Comoros or Comorian citizens living abroad. The extension also offers very specific professional categories requiring a valid license to practice that profession in the country: .medecin.km (doctors), .notaires.km (notaries), .pharmaciens.km (pharmacists), and .veterinaire.km (veterinarians), along with .coop.km (cooperatives), .asso.km (associations), .presse.km (media), .edu.km (universities), and .gouv.km (government).
Direct second-level registration under .km is reserved for companies and trademark holders, requiring local presence. The .com.km subdomain is open to companies from any country; .nom.km is reserved for residents of Comoros or Comorian citizens abroad. Professional categories such as .medecin.km, .notaires.km, or .pharmaciens.km require a valid license to practice that profession in the country.
