.movie registration
.movie is designed for filmmakers, studios, cinemas, festivals, distributors, reviewers, streaming projects, and anyone publishing film-related content. Registration is open to everyone without eligibility conditions. Available names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so a clear and memorable name is worth securing early. A .movie domain label may contain between 1 and 63 characters. The extension also supports selected accented Latin characters, making it possible to register names that reflect several European languages more naturally. This can be useful for local productions, regional festivals, international releases, and film titles with distinctive spelling. To transfer an existing .movie domain to host.yt, first disable the transfer lock or other transfer protection at your current registrar. You must then obtain the domain’s authorization code and provide it when starting the transfer. Completion can take several days, and one year is added to the domain’s expiration date when the transfer is finalized. Changing the registered holder requires authentication by both the current and future holders. Each party receives a validation email, and both confirmations must be completed within five days or the request is cancelled. A holder change does not alter the domain’s expiration date. .movie also supports standard management actions such as renewal, restoration, DNS changes, DNSSEC, forwarding, privacy preferences, and registrar locking.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .movie extension mean?
movie signals a direct connection with films and motion-picture content. It gives visitors immediate context before they open the site, making it suitable for film titles, production companies, cinemas, festivals, portfolios, reviews, distribution projects, and promotional campaigns.
Who can register a .movie domain?
Anyone can register a .movie domain. There are no eligibility conditions based on location, profession, industry membership, or organization type. Registration is available to individuals, businesses, creative teams, and nonprofit projects, with available names allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
Are there registration restrictions or required documents for .movie?
No supporting documents or film-industry credentials are required to register a .movie domain. The chosen label must be available and contain between 1 and 63 characters. Selected accented Latin characters are supported, allowing names in several European languages to retain their natural spelling.
Is .movie a good choice, and what projects suit it?
movie is a practical choice when film is central to the project’s identity. It suits individual releases, studios, directors, actors, cinemas, festivals, review publications, archives, fan projects, and streaming campaigns. The extension makes the subject of the website clear from the address.
When does .movie make more sense than .com?
Choose .movie when you want the address itself to communicate a clear film focus, especially for a title, premiere, festival, cinema, or production portfolio. Choose .com when the project covers a broader business or several unrelated activities. .movie is more descriptive; .com is more general-purpose.
How quickly is a .movie domain registered, and how long does it last?
A .movie name is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis after a valid registration request is accepted. It remains registered for the term confirmed with the order and must be renewed before its expiration date to stay active. Renewal and restoration operations are supported.
How do I transfer a .movie domain to host.yt?
Disable transfer protection at your current registrar, request the domain’s authorization code, and use that code to start the transfer to host.yt. The process may take several days. Once finalized, one year is added to the domain’s existing expiration date.
