.mg registration
.mg is Madagascar’s country-code domain extension. It suits businesses, organisations, services and publications connected with the country, as well as projects that want a concise Madagascar-focused address. Names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, without a special registration procedure. A .mg name may contain between 2 and 63 characters. Choosing a short, recognisable label can make the address easier to type and remember. Before ordering, check that the exact name is available, since an earlier valid registration takes priority. Transferring an existing .mg domain to host.yt requires two preparations at the current registrar: remove any transfer lock or protection, and obtain the domain’s authorisation code. Submit that code with the transfer request. Completion may take several days, and a successful transfer adds one year to the domain’s expiry date. A .mg address gives a project a direct geographic signal. It can work well for companies serving customers in Madagascar, local initiatives, travel and cultural resources, regional campaigns, or international organisations maintaining a dedicated Malagasy presence. For broader brand protection, it can also complement addresses under related extensions such as .com.mg, .co.mg, .org.mg or .net.mg. host.yt can support registration, renewal, DNS management, DNSSEC, forwarding and holder changes for .mg domains.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .mg extension stand for?
mg is the country-code top-level domain assigned to Madagascar. It gives a website or online service a clear connection with the country, making it suitable for locally focused businesses, organisations, information resources, campaigns and other projects intended for audiences in Madagascar.
Who can register a .mg domain?
mg registration is open through the standard ordering process, with names assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. If the requested label is available and meets the length requirement, it can be submitted for registration without a separate application procedure.
Are there restrictions or documents required to register .mg?
There is no special registration procedure or stated documentary step for a standard .mg order. The chosen label must contain between 2 and 63 characters, and the name must still be available when the registration request is processed.
Is .mg a good domain choice, and what projects suit it?
mg is a practical choice for projects with a meaningful Madagascar focus. It fits local companies, public-interest resources, tourism services, cultural initiatives, regional publications and international brands creating a dedicated presence for customers or communities in the country.
When does .mg make more sense than .com?
mg provides a stronger Madagascar signal, while .com is more geographically neutral and familiar to global audiences. Choose .mg when local relevance and country identification are central to the project. Choose .com when the same website is primarily intended to serve an international market without a country-specific emphasis.
How quickly is a .mg domain registered, and how long does it last?
mg uses a straightforward, first-come registration process rather than a special application procedure. Processing begins after the order and availability check. The applicable registration term and expiry date should be confirmed with the order, then monitored so the domain can be renewed before expiration.
How do I transfer a .mg domain to host.yt?
First, disable the transfer lock or other transfer protection at your current registrar. Then request the domain’s authorisation code and provide it when starting the transfer to host.yt. The process may take several days. Once completed, one year is added to the domain’s existing expiry date.
