.pk Domain Registration

A .pk domain is Pakistan’s official country-code domain extension, widely used by businesses, startups, and individuals targeting a local Pakistani audience. Registering a .pk domain helps build trust, credibility, and strong local brand recognition online.

What is a .PK Domain?

A .pk domain represents Pakistan on the internet and is suitable for individuals, startups, companies, and organizations operating in or targeting Pakistan. Unlike generic domains, a .pk domain clearly shows your local presence and commitment to the Pakistani market.

A registered company is not mandatory to own a .pk domain. Both individuals and businesses can register it, provided the domain name follows registry policies.

Requirements for .PK Domain Registration

To register a .pk domain, basic ownership and contact details are required. In most cases, formal documents are not needed, but accurate information is essential for verification and ownership protection.

Typical requirements include:

  • Domain owner’s full name

  • Valid email address

  • Contact number

  • Purpose of the domain (business or personal use)

Minimum Registration Duration

.pk domains are usually registered for a minimum multi-year period as per local registry policies. Short-term (one-year) registrations are generally not available, which is why .pk domains may appear more expensive compared to international extensions.

Important points:

  • Multi-year registration is mandatory

  • Renewal must be completed on time to avoid suspension

DNS and Nameserver Configuration

A .pk domain requires proper DNS and nameserver configuration to connect your website and email services. DNS records control where your website and emails point.

If you do not have technical experience, our support team assists with:

  • Website DNS setup

  • Email (MX) record configuration

  • Future DNS updates when required

Domain Ownership and Control

Once registered, the .pk domain is assigned to the domain owner’s name. The owner has full control over:

  • DNS management

  • Renewal decisions

  • Transfer eligibility (subject to policy)

No changes can be made without the owner’s authorization, ensuring security and ownership protection.

Renewal and Expiry Policy

Timely renewal of a .pk domain is very important. If a domain is not renewed before expiry:

  • The domain may be suspended

  • Website and email services can stop working

To avoid service interruption, renew your domain before the expiry date or enable renewal reminders.

Can a .PK Domain Be Transferred?

.pk domains can be transferred between registrars, subject to registry rules and eligibility. Only active and compliant domains are eligible for transfer. Transfer requests are reviewed according to current policies at the time of request.

Who Should Register a .PK Domain?

A .pk domain is best for:

  • Businesses targeting Pakistani customers

  • Local startups and brands

  • Organizations building trust in Pakistan

  • Individuals wanting a country-specific online identity
