.id Domain Registration Rules and Requirements

When it comes to choosing a domain name and registering an .id domain, there are a set of rules and requirements that must be met by the registrants.

In order to get .co.id domain name, the domain name must resemble the Indonesian corporation name or Indonesian trademark application/registration. The registrant must have some form of local presence such as a sole agent, branch office, etc. in Indonesia. If the registrant is unable to meet the requirement of having a physical business presence in the country, the registrant will be provided with the registration of the domain in the name of a representative in Indonesia. This option is available at an additional cost.

You can also use the trade name as your domain name under .id registration. For this, you must keep a copy of trademark of a company registered in the country.
