    Overview

    • .id is the Internet country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Indonesia.
    • First registered on 27 February 1993.
    • Managed by the Indonesian Internet Domain Name Administrator (Perkumpulan Pengelola Nama Domain Internet Indonesia, PANDI).

    History

    • 27 February 1993: .id was first registered.
    • 2007: Management of the .id ccTLD was transferred to PANDI, operating under regulations set by the Indonesian Ministry of Communication and Information Technology.
    • 11 March 2013: PANDI approved the adoption of the "desa" second-level domain for Indonesia's villages.
    • 17 August 2014: Second-level registrations (domains directly under .id) entered general availability.
    • Registration counts: 819,465 registered domains (data from 2023-11-30). (ICANNWiki noted approximately 726,000 active registrations as of February 2023.)

    Usage and Audience

    • Common second-level domains and typical uses:

    Registration Rules

    • Top-level (second-level) .id registrations are open and do not require Indonesian presence.
    • Many third-level registrations under specific second-level labels remain restricted and require local eligibility (for example, .co.id registration requires documentation showing an Indonesian company or trademark owner and a physical presence).
    • Naming policies from PANDI include acceptable bases for a requested domain name:
      • Normative Name: match or be part of the registrant's legal name.
      • Brand Name / Trademark / IPR: domain related to a registrant's registered brand or trademark, with supporting registration proof.
      • Related Names: names tied to products, services, divisions, or programs of the registrant.
      • Name Representative / Agent / Distributor: names linked to official representatives or distributors with proof of appointment.
    • Character and length rules (per registry guidance):
      • Allowed characters: Latin and non-Latin alphabets, digits, and hyphens.
      • Maximum length per label: 63 characters; maximum full domain length (including dots): 253 characters.
      • Hyphen restrictions: not allowed at the beginning or end of a label, and not allowed as the third or fourth character in the label sequence.

    SEO and Brand Impact

    • .id is described as "very popular in Indonesia," indicating strong local recognition and usage.
    • The availability of both open second-level registrations and restricted, purpose-specific second-level labels (e.g., .gov/.go.id, .ac.id, .co.id) provides signals of institutional, governmental, or sector-specific affiliation, which can support trust and brand positioning for Indonesian audiences.
