.jm ccTLD Background
The .jm extension was introduced in the year 1991 and serves as the top-level domain for entities connected with Jamaica. Registration of domain names is open to anyone. Residents and businesses in Jamaica receive a discounted domain name registration price. Since registrations are processed manually rather than automatically, .jm registrations will be completed within 30 days.
Domain name management and the process of registering .jm domain names is handled by the Jamaica Registry (http://www.com.jm/). An online application form must be filled out and submitted. Applicants are notified of the successful registration of their domain via e-mail; they are also sent a web link where they can access their payment information. The domains registered must have a capable administrative assistant and technical support contact to enable smooth functioning.
