    About .fj domain

    .fj is a country code top-level domain (ccTLD) delegated to Fiji and administered by The University of the South Pacific IT Services. It has been active since its establishment in 1992, making it one of the earlier ccTLDs in the Asia-Pacific region. Unlike many ccTLDs that allow direct second-level registrations, .fj requires all domain names to be registered at the third level beneath a designated second-level domain such as .com.fj or .org.fj. The registry operates under a registration agreement that includes content standards and reserves the right to cancel domain names deemed inappropriate after registration.

    Who can register .fj domain

    Eligibility for .fj varies by the second-level domain chosen. Several second-level domains are open to registrants with no restrictions:

    • .com.fj and .biz.fj — open to any business
    • .info.fj — open to anyone running an informational website
    • .name.fj — intended for individuals
    • .net.fj — intended for network providers and operators
    • .org.fj — intended for organisations, particularly nonprofits
    • .pro.fj — intended for certified professionals

    Certain second-level domains are reserved for specific entities: .ac.fj is restricted to academic institutions (excluding primary and secondary schools), .school.fj is reserved for primary and secondary schools, .gov.fj is reserved for the Government of Fiji, and .mil.fj is reserved for the Republic of Fiji Military Forces.

    How to register .fj domain

    1. Search for availability at the official .fj registry at domains.fj or through a registrar that supports .fj registrations. Because all registrations are at the third level, you will need to choose both your desired name and the appropriate second-level domain (such as .com.fj or .org.fj) before checking availability.

    2. Review the registration agreement and policies before proceeding. The registry enforces content standards and reserves the right to cancel names it deems inappropriate, so confirm your intended domain name complies with Fiji's statutory laws and the registry's acceptable use terms.

    3. Complete the registration checkout by providing accurate contact details. The registry may review registered names after the automated registration process completes, so ensure your registrant information is correct and up to date from the outset.

    4. Configure your DNS settings after registration is confirmed. Point your domain to your hosting provider's nameservers or set up DNS records directly, and keep your contact details current since WHOIS accuracy is expected under the registration agreement.

    Typical uses of .fj domain

    The .fj namespace is most commonly used by businesses, organisations, and individuals based in or connected to Fiji who want a locally recognised web presence. Commercial entities typically register under .com.fj to signal a Fiji-based business identity, while nonprofits and community groups favour .org.fj. Academic institutions use .ac.fj to establish credibility within the education sector. The structured second-level system means registrants choose a domain that reflects their sector, making .fj a well-organised namespace for those who want their online identity to clearly align with Fiji.

    Tips for registering .fj domain

    • Third-level structure is mandatory. You cannot register a name directly under .fj itself — every registration must sit beneath a second-level domain such as .com.fj, .org.fj, or .net.fj, so plan your domain name accordingly.
    • Content policy enforcement applies post-registration. The registry uses an automated registration process but reserves the right to review and cancel domain names after registration if they are found to violate content standards; a cancellation results in a refund of only 75% of the registration fee.
    • Reserved second-level domains require eligibility. Attempting to register under .ac.fj, .school.fj, .gov.fj, or .mil.fj without meeting the relevant criteria is not permitted, so verify your eligibility before registering under these categories.
    • UDRP dispute resolution applies. The .fj registry follows the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy, meaning third parties can challenge registrations they believe infringe on their rights through the standard UDRP process.
    • WHOIS accuracy is expected. Providing accurate registrant contact information is a requirement under the registration agreement, so keep your details current throughout the life of the registration.

    Who operates .fj domain?The registry for .fj domains is University of the South Pacific IT Services, administered by The University of the South Pacific.
    Who can register a .fj domain?

    Most .fj second-level domains such as .com.fj, .org.fj, .net.fj, .biz.fj, .info.fj, .name.fj, and .pro.fj carry no formal geographic restrictions, meaning registrants outside Fiji can technically apply. However, reserved categories like .ac.fj, .school.fj, .gov.fj, and .mil.fj require the registrant to belong to the specific institution type those labels represent. There is no blanket requirement to be a Fiji resident or citizen for the unrestricted second-level domains, but the intended use of the TLD is for entities connected with Fiji.

    Can I transfer a .fj domain between registrars?

    Transfers of .fj domain names are handled through the registry at domains.fj, and the process may differ from the standard EPP transfer flow used by generic TLDs. Because the registry is operated directly by The University of the South Pacific IT Services rather than through a large commercial registry platform, it is advisable to contact the registry directly to confirm the current transfer procedure and any applicable fees or lock periods. Ensuring your contact details are accurate before initiating a transfer will help avoid delays.

    What happens if my .fj domain name is cancelled for a content policy violation?

    If the registry determines after registration that a domain name violates its content standards — such as being defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable — it reserves the right to cancel the registration. In that event, the registrant may either register a replacement name at no additional cost or request a refund, though only 75% of the original registration fee is returned, with the remaining 25% retained as an administration fee. This policy is set out in the registration agreement, so reviewing it before registering is strongly recommended.

    Does .fj use the UDRP for domain disputes?

    Yes, .fj follows the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP), the standard mechanism used to resolve disputes between domain registrants and trademark holders. Under UDRP, a complainant who believes a domain was registered in bad faith or infringes on their trademark can file a case with an approved dispute resolution provider. If the complaint is successful, the domain can be transferred to the complainant or cancelled. Registrants should ensure their chosen domain name does not conflict with existing trademarks to avoid such proceedings.

    Can I register a .fj domain directly under the root, without a second-level category?

    No — direct registrations under .fj are not permitted. Every domain name must be registered at the third level, meaning it must sit beneath one of the designated second-level domains such as .com.fj, .org.fj, or .net.fj. This structural requirement is a core feature of how the .fj namespace is organised, and there is no mechanism to obtain a name in the format example.fj without a second-level category in between.
