    About .td domain

    .td is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) assigned to Chad, derived from the country's French name, Tchad. It was delegated in November 1997, initially to Telecommunications Internationales du Tchad (TIT), before management passed through several entities over the years. Since 2017, the registry has been operated by l'Agence de Développement des Technologies de l'Information et de la Communication (ADETIC), following an official government ordinance transferring authority. The extension follows a structured second-level domain system, with registrations made at the third level beneath designated category subdomains. .td uses UDRP as its dispute resolution policy.

    Who can register .td domain

    .td is an open registration extension with no formal residency or local presence requirement — registrants from anywhere in the world are eligible to register a .td domain. However, registrations are structured beneath specific second-level domains, and some of those subdomains carry their own restrictions. For example, .gouv.td is reserved for government and state entities, .edu.td for educational institutions, .presid.td for the Presidency, and .net.td for telecommunications operators. Commercial registrants would typically register under .com.td, while nonprofits and associations would use .org.td.

    How to register .td domain

    1. Search for your desired .td domain name using a registrar that supports this extension. Because .td registrations are structured at the third level (e.g., yourname.com.td), you will need to decide which second-level category — such as .com.td, .org.td, or .tourism.td — best fits your use case before searching.

    2. Compare available registrars that offer .td registrations, reviewing their pricing, renewal rates, and included features. Check whether WHOIS privacy protection is offered, as availability can vary by registrar for ccTLD extensions.

    3. Complete the checkout process by selecting your preferred registration term and any add-ons such as DNS management or email forwarding. Confirm that the second-level domain category you have chosen matches your organization type, as some subdomains have eligibility requirements.

    4. After registration, verify your contact details are accurate in the WHOIS record and configure your DNS settings to point to your hosting provider or nameservers. Keeping contact information up to date is especially important for ccTLDs, which may have stricter WHOIS accuracy expectations.

    Typical uses of .td domain

    The .td extension is primarily used by organizations and individuals with a connection to Chad, including businesses registering under .com.td, nonprofits operating under .org.td, and health or tourism-related entities using their respective subdomains. Because the extension is open to global registrants without a local presence requirement, it also attracts international registrants looking for a short, distinctive two-letter domain. Those seeking a memorable web address in a less crowded namespace may find .td a practical alternative to more saturated extensions.

    Tips for registering .td domain

    • Registrations under .td are made at the third level, meaning your domain will take the form of yourname.com.td or yourname.org.td — factor this into your branding decisions before registering.
    • Some second-level subdomains such as .gouv.td, .presid.td, and .edu.td are reserved for specific entity types; registering under the wrong category may result in cancellation or rejection.
    • WHOIS privacy availability is not guaranteed for ccTLD extensions like .td and depends on the specific registrar you choose — confirm this before completing your purchase.
    • Check renewal pricing carefully, as introductory registration rates offered by some registrars may differ significantly from the ongoing renewal cost.
    • .td uses UDRP for dispute resolution, meaning trademark holders have a formal mechanism to challenge registrations they believe infringe on their marks.

    Who can register a .td domain?

    There are no geographic restrictions on registering a .td domain — individuals and organizations from any country are eligible. The main practical consideration is choosing the correct second-level category (such as .com.td for commercial entities or .org.td for nonprofits), as some categories are reserved for specific types of organizations. No documentation proving local presence in Chad is required for most subdomains.

    Can I transfer a .td domain between registrars?

    Transfers of .td domains between registrars follow standard inter-registrar transfer procedures, typically involving an authorization code (also called an EPP or transfer key) issued by the losing registrar. Most registrars impose a transfer lock period immediately after a new registration or a completed transfer, commonly lasting 60 days, during which the domain cannot be moved again. It is advisable to confirm transfer policies with your specific registrar before initiating a move, as ccTLD transfer rules can vary.

    What dispute resolution policy applies to .td domains?

    .td operates under the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP), the standard mechanism used by ICANN-coordinated TLDs to handle disputes between domain registrants and trademark holders. Under UDRP, a complainant can file a case with an approved dispute resolution provider if they believe a domain was registered in bad faith and infringes on their trademark rights. If the complaint is successful, the domain can be transferred to the complainant or cancelled. Registrants should ensure their chosen domain does not conflict with existing trademarks to avoid such proceedings.

    Are there content or usage restrictions associated with .td domains?

    Beyond the eligibility requirements tied to specific second-level subdomains (such as .sante.td for health establishments or .agri.td for agricultural entities), there are no widely published content restrictions for general commercial or organizational .td registrations. Registrants are still expected to comply with applicable laws and the registry's naming policy. If you are registering under a category-specific subdomain, ensure your organization genuinely fits that category to avoid potential cancellation.

    What happens if I let my .td domain expire?

    Like most ccTLDs, .td domains typically go through a grace period after expiration during which the registrant can renew without additional fees, followed by a redemption period where recovery is possible but may incur higher costs. After the redemption period, the domain is released and becomes available for anyone to register. The exact duration of these periods can vary by registrar, so it is important to monitor renewal dates and set up auto-renewal where possible to avoid losing your domain.
