Register a .ma
The .ma is Morocco's national extension, managed by ANRT. Every registration goes through an accredited provider, with mandatory identity verification.
The 3 steps
- Check the name's availability on our homepage.
- Pick an accredited registrar and provide your documents (national ID, passport or ICE).
- The registrar forwards to ANRT, which validates and activates the domain.
Reserved terms
Not every name can be registered in .ma. Terms tied to national institutions, local authorities and protected brands require justification.
Concerned categories
- Names of Moroccan cities and regions.
- Institutional and governmental terms.
- Well-known trademarks and protected names.
When in doubt, test the name: a blocked domain will show a specific status, and your registrar will tell you which documents to provide.
Frequently asked questions
How do I check if a .ma domain is available?
Type the name in the homepage search field. The service queries the ANRT-managed .ma registry and instantly tells you whether the domain is free or registered.
Do I need an ID document to register a .ma?
Yes. Since ANRT decision DG/N°02/2024, individuals must provide their national ID or passport, and companies their ICE business identifier.
Where do I register a .ma domain name?
With an ANRT-accredited registrar. The registry itself does not register directly for individuals.
What is a reserved term in .ma?
Some words are protected: city names, institution-related terms, famous trademarks. ANRT may require proof before activating a domain containing one.
My domain contains a reserved term, what should I do?
Give your registrar documents proving your right (trademark certificate, licence, written authorisation). Without proof, pick another name.
