.NYC domain registration requirements

The .NYC top-level domain provides an online hub for the purposes of connecting New Yorkers with each other and allowing NYC-based businesses to establish connections in the global marketplace. This is the perfect domain extension for anyone who owns a business in NYC, writes about it, or markets products relating to NYC.

Only New York City businesses and organizations with a NYC address and individuals with a primary residence in NYC are eligible to register a .NYC domain name.

A registrant of a .NYC domain must be either:

- an individual whose primary place of domicile is a valid physical address in the City of New York (“Nexus Category 1 - Individual”);

or

- an entity/organization/company that has a physical street address in the City of New York (“Nexus Category 2 - Organization”).

New York / NY should be indicated in the City and State/Province fields for both Individual and Organization Nexus Categories. Registrants are to provide a valid street address and the corresponding zip code both in the Registrant set of information as well as in the .NYC Extended Attributes section:
