The prerequisites for buying a .sg domain depend on whether the registrant is an individual or an organization.

Eligible foreign residents must submit a Foreign Identification Number (FIN). The administrative contact must complete identity verification through SGNIC's VerifiedID@SG portal, which uses Singpass for verification.

There are 3 prerequisites for organizations buying a .sg domain.
The first is that the organization must provide a valid Singapore postal address for the administrative contact or appoint a duly authorized local agent as its administrative contact if it is a foreign applicant.
The second is that the organization must register using the legal name and provide the relevant organization details required for the chosen .sg extension.

The second is strengthening brand identity.
A Singapore-specific domain extension reinforces your local brand identity and differentiates your business from competitors targeting the same Singapore market.
The third is improving local search relevance.
Search engines recognize .sg domain extensions as a Singapore country-code domain, which helps your website achieve better relevance for location-based searches targeting Singaporean users.
The fourth is protecting your brand name.
A .sg domain secures your brand identity in Singapore and reduces the risk of competitors or third parties registering a similar domain.
Five clear steps
Register a .sg domain by following the 5 steps listed below.
Choose A Trusted Domain Registrar:
Select an accredited domain registrar, such as CLDY, that offers .sg domain registration, domain management, and related hosting services.
Search for Your Preferred .sg Domain Name:
Check whether your desired .sg domain is available through the registrar. Select an alternative domain name if it has already been registered.
Choose the Appropriate .SG Domain Extension:
Select the .sg domain extension that will be added to your domain name and matches your eligibility and intended use. Common .sg domain extensions include .com.sg, .org.sg, .edu.sg, or .net.sg.
Provide Your Registration Information:
After selecting the domain and its extension, submit the required personal or business details. These details include any identification and eligibility documents needed for your selected domain extension.
Complete Your Registration:
Before completing your registration, review your provided information for any errors. Pay the registration fee after confirming the provided data is accurate and submit your application to complete your .sg domain registration. Once the registration is processed, complete any required VerifiedID@SG verification using Singpass/Corppass to keep the domain active.
Yes, you can register a .sg domain without a physical presence in Singapore. You need to appoint a local administrative contact or agent who meets SGNIC's registration requirements for eligible .sg domain extensions. The local administrative contact acts as the official point of contact for SGNIC on matters related to your domain registration.
Singapore's country-code domain
A .sg domain is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Singapore that identifies a website or online business with a connection to Singapore. It is managed by the Singapore Network Information Centre (SGNIC) and is available in multiple extensions, including .sg, .com.sg, .org.sg, .edu.sg, and .net.sg. Businesses, organizations, and individuals register a .sg domain to establish a local online presence, strengthen their Singapore brand identity, and build credibility with customers in the Singapore market. A .sg domain helps users recognize your website as being associated with Singapore and provides a locally recognized web address for your website, business email, or online store.

.sg domains typically cost between S$28 and S$60 per year, depending on the domain extension, registrar, and registration term. Standard extensions such as .sg and .com.sg are generally priced from S$28 per year, while renewal fees and promotional offers may vary between registrars. After the initial registration period, your .sg domain must be renewed annually to maintain ownership and prevent it from expiring.
.sg domain name registrars are companies that provide registration, renewal, transfer, and management services for .sg domain names. .SG domain registrations are governed by SGNIC and processed in accordance with its registration requirements. CLDY is an ICANN-accredited domain registrar that provides .sg domain registration alongside domain management, support, and related services. CLDY helps ensure your .sg domain is registered and managed in accordance with SGNIC's policies.
Yes, you can protect certain personal information during .sg domain registration, but .sg domain names do not support full third-party WHOIS privacy protection services. SGNIC automatically masks sensitive identification details, such as NRIC and FIN in public WHOIS records. Other registration information, such as the registrant's name, administrative contact details, and contact information, is handled and disclosed in accordance with SGNIC's registration policies.
Being struck off by ACRA refers to the removal of a registered business or company from the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) register, after which the entity legally ceases to exist. If your business is struck off by ACRA, your .sg domain may no longer satisfy the eligibility requirements for organization-based .sg domain extensions, such as .com.sg. SGNIC or your registrar may require you to update your registration details, transfer the domain to an eligible entity, or take other actions to maintain your domain registration. If the eligibility issue is not resolved, your .sg domain may become ineligible for renewal and may fail future SGNIC eligibility validation checks. SGNIC then suspends or deletes the domain according to its policies.
No, you cannot own a .sg domain permanently as .sg domains are registered for fixed registration periods and must be renewed before they expire to maintain ownership. To keep your .sg domain active, monitor its expiry date, enable automatic renewal at your registrar whenever possible, or renew it manually before the registration period ends if auto-renewal is disabled. Renewing your .sg domain on time prevents service interruptions and ensures you can continue using your domain as long as you meet SGNIC's eligibility requirements.
Yes, a .sg domain can support local search engine optimization (SEO) in Singapore, but it is not a direct ranking factor. Search engines do not rank websites higher simply because they use a .sg domain, and your domain extension does not affect website speed. Rankings are mainly influenced by factors such as content quality, website authority, technical SEO, backlinks, and user experience. A .sg domain is effective for a website's SEO when combined with strong local SEO practices, such as location-specific content, technical optimization, and authoritative backlinks. These factors improve your website's visibility among users searching for your products and services in Singapore.
Yes, .sg domains support Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs), including Chinese and Tamil characters. It is possible to register .新加坡 (Chinese) or .சிங்கப்பூர் (Tamil) domain names to create a web address that better serves Chinese-speaking or Tamil-speaking audiences in Singapore. These multilingual .sg domain extensions allow businesses and organizations to improve brand recognition, provide a localized online experience, and make their websites more accessible to users who prefer their native language.
