Frequently asked questions about .ru

What is .ru?

+
.ru is a top-level domain (TLD) you can use to give your brand a more targeted identity. It works like any modern domain for websites, email, and redirects.

Who can register a .ru domain?

+
In most cases registration is open to everyone. Any registry-specific rules apply to all registrars, and we follow them in the process.

How much does registration, renewal or transfer cost?

+
Prices are shown separately in the table on this page. If a name is designated Premium by the registry, it may have different pricing than standard.

Can I renew after it expires?

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

Can I transfer .ru to DomainMarket?

+
Yes. You will typically need the Auth/EPP code from your current registrar. Transfer usually 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. Contact privacy also depends on registry rules and service availability.

Can I use it with email and hosting?

+
Yes. We provide free DNS management and you can point it to DomainMarket email/hosting or any other provider via nameservers or DNS records.

How do I register?
