Yes, non-Albanian citizens or companies can register .al domains. The process for registering a .al domain is relatively simple and is open to individuals and entities from any country. Here are the general steps and requirements for registering a .al domain:
- Choose a Registrar : Host.al is the largest domain registrar in the country, with more than 40% of the area. We serve global brands and the most popular corporations and agencies in the country.
- Domain Name Selection : Choose an available .al domain name. You can use Host.al’s search tool to check the availability of the domain you want.
- Provide Required Information : During the registration process, you will need to provide personal or business information. This usually includes:
- For individuals: Full name, ID number, address, phone number and email address.
- For companies: Company name, registration number, address, telephone number and email address.
- Payment : Pay the registration fee. The cost of a .al domain is €12.99, but registration for more than one year is accompanied by a discount.
- Complete Registration : When the payment has been processed, Host.al will handle the rest of the registration process. You will receive confirmation once the domain is registered in your name.
Important Considerations:
- Compliance with Local Laws : Make sure the domain name you choose complies with Albanian laws and regulations. Some domain names may be restricted or banned.
- Renewal and Maintenance : Be sure to renew your domain registration before it expires to avoid losing your domain. You can enable automatic renewal options.
- Use of Local Agent (Optional) : We offer a local agent service in Albania to facilitate the registration process, although this is not a strict requirement.
By following these steps, non-Albanian citizens or companies can successfully register and use .al domains for their websites or other online services.
