Frequently asked questions about .ke

What is .ke?

+
.ke is a domain extension (TLD) you can use to give your brand a clearer, more relevant online identity. It works with websites, email and redirects like any modern domain.

Who can register .ke domains?

+
In most cases, registration is open to everyone. If the registry sets specific rules, they apply to all registrars and we follow them during the registration process.

How much does registration/renewal/transfer cost?

+
Pricing is listed separately in the table on this page. If the registry classifies a name as a Premium domain, different pricing may apply.

Can I renew after expiry?

+
Yes, there is usually a grace period for renewal. Duration and any restoration fees are set by the registry, so the safest approach is to renew on time.

Can I transfer .ke to DomainMarket?

+
Yes. You will usually need the Auth/EPP code from your current registrar. Transfer typically completes within a few days, depending on the registry.

Does it support DNSSEC and WHOIS privacy?

+
DNSSEC (DS records) can be enabled where supported by the TLD/registry. WHOIS privacy also depends on registry rules and the services available for that TLD.

Can I use it with email and hosting?

+
Yes. We provide free DNS management and you can point it to Email Hosting/Hosting at DomainMarket or any provider via nameservers or DNS records.

How do I register?

+
