Requirements
Who can register a .tm.mc?
- New registrations under .tm.mc are no longer possible. You can still manage existing domain names as usual.
- NIC Monaco can freeze your domain name, and all your other domain names with that registry, for up to 30 days if they don't comply with the rules. This can happen following a check by NIC Monaco or a court ruling.
- During a freeze like this, pending changes may lapse and you can't make any changes to your domain names. They do keep working as normal, though.
- NIC Monaco may assign a domain name to a new registrant without your consent, for example if you no longer meet the conditions, your business has been sold or taken over, or your business no longer exists.
- A court ruling can also lead to a forced transfer of the domain name to a new registrant.
Documents
- NIC Monaco can request any documents or supporting evidence it considers necessary.
Good to know when registering
- Registration of new domain names under .tm.mc has stopped. If an existing domain name is deleted, nobody can register it again.
- Changes to your domain name are processed manually, so they don't take effect straight away. They may also involve extra costs.

Change of registrant
- In a forced transfer, the new registrant handles all the steps with NIC Monaco through a registrar. The new registrant must meet the rules themselves, including those on identification and eligibility.
- NIC Monaco may carry out checks and request information during a forced transfer.
- All costs of a forced transfer are borne by the new registrant, who may be able to recover them from the previous registrant.
- If you transfer a domain name to someone else, have NIC Monaco notified. If no transfer has been reported for two years, this may be taken into account when deciding whether to delete the domain name.
Renewal, cancellation and quarantine
- NIC Monaco can delete your domain name if the registrant has ceased to exist for at least two years, the domain name hasn't been used for two years, or no transfer has been reported during that period.
- Once a domain name under .tm.mc has been deleted, you can't register it again.
