.az registration
.az is Azerbaijan’s country-code extension, suited to businesses, organizations, services, and personal projects that want a clear connection with the country. Registration follows the standard process, with available names assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. A .az label must contain between 3 and 63 characters, so the core name needs to fit within that range. Before registering, check that the exact name is available and enter it carefully. Because allocation is based on order of arrival, an available name can be registered by someone else before your request is completed. This makes prompt submission important for product names, company names, and campaign domains. To transfer an existing .az domain to host.yt, first remove any transfer lock at the current registrar and obtain the authorization code. The transfer can take several days, and it does not change the domain’s expiration date. Keeping the registrant contact details accessible helps prevent avoidable delays during authentication. A change of holder uses email authentication for both the current holder and the incoming holder. Each party should complete validation promptly, because the request is cancelled after five days if the process is not finished. The holder change also leaves the existing expiration date unchanged.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .az extension stand for?
az is the country-code domain extension associated with Azerbaijan. It gives a website an immediate geographic signal and is particularly relevant to companies, organizations, services, and individuals building an online presence connected with Azerbaijan or addressing people interested in the country.
Who can register a .az domain?
az registrations follow the standard registration process, and available names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. The chosen label must be between 3 and 63 characters. Availability should be checked immediately before submitting an order because another applicant may register the same name first.
Are there restrictions or required documents for registering .az?
There is no special procedure attached to a standard .az registration. The main stated naming requirement is a label length of 3 to 63 characters. Registration remains subject to name availability, and eligible requests are processed according to the first-come, first-served allocation principle.
Is .az a good choice, and what projects suit it?
az is a practical choice for websites with a meaningful Azerbaijani connection. It suits local businesses, regional services, cultural or informational projects, campaigns aimed at Azerbaijani audiences, and international brands maintaining a country-specific presence or protecting a name associated with their activity in Azerbaijan.
When does .az make more sense than .com?
az makes more sense when an Azerbaijani identity or audience is central to the project because the extension communicates that geographic focus immediately. .com offers broader international familiarity, but it provides less local context. A business focused mainly on Azerbaijan gains a clearer positioning signal from .az.
How quickly is .az registered, and how long does registration last?
az uses a standard registration process, with available domains assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Processing begins after a valid order is submitted. The applicable registration term is presented during the host.yt ordering process, allowing you to review it before confirming and paying for the domain.
How do I transfer a .az domain to host.yt?
Disable the domain’s transfer protection at your current registrar and request its authorization code. Submit that code when starting the transfer to host.yt. A .az transfer may take several days to complete, but the process does not alter the domain’s existing expiration date.
