nic.md is the national registry platform for the .md country-code top-level domain. According to official information checked on 18 October 2026, an individual or legal entity may register a .md domain and the listed annual fee is MDL 450; confirm the price and rules before payment.
How to choose the domain name
Choose a short domain that is easy to say and close to the brand; avoid unnecessary hyphens and ambiguous spelling. Evaluate the criterion against the real project and retain the information used for the decision. This makes the recommendation explainable, verifiable and reviewable when objectives change.
Availability and nic.md account
Search availability on nic.md, create the account with a company-controlled email and enter complete registrant details. Define who supplies the information, who approves it and which result must be delivered. Clear accountability prevents delays and gaps between the discussion and the implementation.
Price, period and payment
The official source lists MDL 450 per year and registration or renewal for 1–3 years; payment is available by card/Mpay or bank transfer. Validate the solution in the real project, including mobile, desktop and less-than-ideal situations. A controlled demonstration does not always reveal limitations that appear after launch.
DNS, website and email
A domain does not automatically include hosting or email; configure the nameservers and DNS records supplied by those services. Record the selected configuration, rejected alternatives, recurring costs and rollback method. Simple documentation makes maintenance easier and reduces the risk of changes made without context.
Ownership, renewal and transfer
Keep the company as registrant, enable notifications, protect the account and use the authorisation code for a controlled transfer. Include the decision in handover documentation and set the next review date. The business should continue the work or change suppliers without losing access or digital assets.
Turn the guide into an action plan
Apply the recommendations to one objective and the pages that directly influence enquiries. Create a table with the baseline, action, owner, deadline and final verification. Do not change every variable simultaneously: controlled interventions show what worked and reduce the risk of losing content, data or visibility. Review the outcome after a relevant period and keep decisions documented.
