Who can apply for a .com.np domain?
The registry connects a Nepal domain to a real person, business or organisation. Pick the category that describes your application, then check the registry’s current rules.
Organisations and institutions
Schools, clubs, NGOs and other organisations can apply with documents that show the organisation exists and owns or represents the name.
Individuals
Individuals can apply for a personal .np domain with an accepted identity document. The name should relate to your own name or identity.
Documents to prepare
The exact list depends on whether you apply as a business, organisation or individual. These are the common things to prepare; the registry’s current checklist overrides this guide.
Business or organisation
- Current company or organisation registration certificate
- A request letter on official letterhead, signed and stamped where applicable
- An identity document for the authorised contact if requested
Individual applicant
- Citizenship certificate, passport, driving licence or another accepted ID
- An email address and phone number you can access
- A domain name related to your own name or identity
Before you upload
- Use clear scans or photos with all corners visible
- Make sure the name and spelling match across documents
- Check the registry’s current document list because requirements can change
Do not upload a document you are not comfortable sharing with the registry. Keep copies of what you submit and use an email address you check regularly.
How to register a .com.np domain
You apply through the Nepal registry. We can help with the hosting and DNS part before or after approval.
Apply at register.com.npChoose a name that matches
Pick a .com.np name based on your registered business, organisation, product, brand or personal name. Avoid a name that only sounds related but cannot be supported by your documents.
Prepare your documents
Gather the relevant registration certificate or ID, request letter and contact details. Use the registry’s current checklist before you submit anything.
Create an account at the registry
Open register.com.np, create or sign in to your account, search the name and start the application for the correct extension.
Submit and track the application
Upload the requested documents, complete the form and submit it. The registry reviews the application; approval is not automatic.
Add nameservers after approval
Once the domain is approved, add your hosting nameservers or DNS records. Then connect SSL, your website and business email.
Choose a name the registry can verify
A clear connection between the name and your documents gives your application the best chance of making sense to a reviewer.
Make the connection obvious
A business name, product name, organisation name or personal name is easier for the registry to verify than an unrelated word.
Keep your spelling consistent
Use the same spelling, spacing and abbreviation across the domain, application and supporting documents.
Avoid someone else’s name
Do not apply for a name that could mislead people about another business, organisation or trademark.
Check the exact extension
The registry offers several .np extensions. Choose the one that fits your organisation and check its rules before submitting.
If the registry rejects the application
A rejection does not always mean the name is impossible. Read the reason, correct the mismatch and check the current instructions before submitting again.
Ask us what to checkCommon things to review
- The domain name does not match the applicant or supporting documents.
- A certificate, ID or request letter is missing, unclear or expired.
- The applicant details are inconsistent between the form and documents.
- The name is already registered, reserved or conflicts with another name.
- The application uses an extension or category the applicant does not qualify for.
After approval, connect your website
A domain is the address. Hosting stores your website. Once the registry approves your .com.np, add your Baddas Cloud nameservers and we can help finish the DNS, SSL and email setup.
What customers say
Businesses, developers and founders across Nepal who run their websites, WordPress stores and domains on Baddas Cloud.
.com.np questions, answered
Eligibility, documents, approval, nameservers and what to do after the registry says yes.
Is a .com.np domain really free?
The Nepal registry does not charge a registration fee for eligible .com.np applicants. You still need to meet the registry rules and provide the requested documents. Hosting, email or help setting up the website are separate services.
Who can register a .com.np domain?
Eligible Nepali businesses, organisations and individuals can apply. The exact eligibility and document rules belong to the Nepal registry, so check the current guidance at register.com.np before submitting.
What documents are needed for a .com.np domain?
Businesses and organisations commonly need a current registration certificate and a signed request letter. Individuals commonly need an accepted identity document. The registry can request additional documents, so use its current checklist as the final authority.
Can I register any name I want?
No. The name should have a clear connection to your business, organisation, product, brand or personal identity, and it must be available. The registry reviews the name and documents before approval.
How long does .com.np approval take?
The registry reviews each application, so approval is not instant and the time can vary. Submit clear, matching documents and watch the email address on your application for a request or decision.
Where do I apply for a .com.np domain?
Apply through the official Nepal registry at register.com.np. Baddas Cloud can help you choose hosting, prepare nameservers and connect the domain after the registry approves it.
Can I use a .com.np domain for a website and email?
Yes. After approval, point the domain to your web hosting and add the DNS records for email. You can use addresses such as hello@yourbusiness.com.np.
Do I need hosting before applying?
You can apply before hosting is ready, but the registry application may ask for nameservers. Ordering hosting first gives you nameservers to enter, so the domain can start working soon after approval.
What happens if my application is rejected?
Read the registry’s reason, correct the name or documents and submit again if the registry allows it. We can help you understand what needs changing, but the registry makes the approval decision.
Can Baddas Cloud register the .com.np for me?
The application is made through the Nepal registry. We can help you understand the checklist, prepare the DNS details and connect the approved domain to your Baddas Cloud hosting. The registry remains responsible for approval.
