.mc is the country code top-level domain for the Principality of Monaco. As this extension is subject to strict conditions, a .mc address always corresponds to a registered company or trademark.

Due to the strict regulations, the .mc extension is a symbol of prestige and reliability. It is used primarily by businesses registered in the Principality, financial and property service providers, hotels, and brands that hold a trade mark in Monaco.

How long will it take to be ready?

New domain registration

Registrations for .mc domains are processed by the registry manually; therefore, registration typically takes 3 days following the order.

Domain transfer

To perform a .mc domain transfer, the domain owner must sign a transfer request, which we will send by email once the order has been placed. As this is processed manually, the process may take several days.

How many characters can it be?

The domain name extension in .mc must be at least 3 and no more than 63 characters long.

Special characters

With the .mc domain extension, special (accented) characters cannot be used in the domain name.

Restrictions

A .mc domain name may be registered by a business registered in Monaco with a local administrative contact, or by an individual or legal entity that holds a trade mark registered in Monaco or covering the territory of Monaco. The domain name must match the company name, its abbreviation or the trade mark. To register, an application form must be completed and an extract from the Monegasque Trade and Companies Register (RCI) or the trademark certificate must be attached.
