.bg is the ccTLD for Bulgaria. It is managed by Register.BG.
Rules[edit | edit source]
The following can be registrants of a .bg domain name:
- Any private persons or legal entities with legal or commercial registration in the Republic of Bulgaria or EU member state, or holders of a constituent act issued by a Bulgarian State Authority; entities, established by virtue of an agreement between Bulgaria and other countries; companies and organizations, registered abroad, having a registered branch or commercial representative office in the Republic of Bulgaria.
- Efficient persons, Bulgarian citizens, foreigners with the right for permanent residence on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria or citizens of EU member state.
- Legal entities, registered abroad, having authorized a third entity to register a domain name. The authorized entity shall meet the criteria above.[1]
Restrictions[edit | edit source]
- The label shall be different from any existing such Top Level Domains (ARPA, COM, EDU, GOV, MIL, NET, ORG,INT, ...). The list of reserved labels is published at http://res-dom.iana.org.
- The names of municipalities and districts are reserved for their respective district governors.
- The names of countries are reserved for their respective embassies or consulates.
- The following labels shall be reserved within the Registry: bgnic, bg-nic, nicbg, nic-bg, nic, register, registar, registry, theregister, the-register, theregistry, the-registry, registrar, theregistrar, the-registrar, domain, domains, domain-registry, domains-registry, internet, cctld, cc-tld, bgtld, bg-tld, tld, регистър, регистъра, регистърът, регистри, регистърбг, регистър-бг, бгрегистър, бг-регистър, домейн, домейна, домейнът, домейни, домейните, бгдомейн, бгдомейни, бгдомейните, бг-домейн, бг-домейни, бг-домейните, домейнбг, домейнибг, домейнитебг, домейн-бг, домейни-бг, домейните-бг, домейнрегистър, домейн-регистър, регистърдомейни, регистър-домейни, регистърнадомейни, регистър-на-домейни, име, имена, имената, името, интернет.
- Registrants shall not choose labels formed of obscene and/or abusive words or combinations of words, as well as any label contrary to public interest and the good manners.
- A label cannot cause confusion. If it does, the registrant is required to chose another.[1]
Characters[edit | edit source]
The accepted characters are "a-z" (Latin script), "0-9" and "-" or "а-я", (Cyrillic script) "0-9" and "-". When written in Cyrillic, only Cyrillic characters are accepted, and the domain name must contain at least one letter that is visually distinct from the Latin alphabet (small or large letters).[2]
The first and the last character shall be either a letter or a number. It is recommended that the first character be a letter. The invalid characters shall be omitted or exchanged with the hyphen sign [-].
The label shall be at least 3, but not more than 63 characters long. When the chosen label consists of two characters only, the registry recommends the hyphen sign '-' to be included between the characters.[1]
New Rules for 2024[edit | edit source]
Due to frequent abuses with requesting domain names for registration, from September 1st 2024, the rules for requesting domain names and placing domain names in the waiting list for their release will be changed:
- Requesting available domain names for registration will be limited to 40 names per applicant. Applicants who would like to request domain name registrations above that number should first register the requested domain names up to this moment, as the total number of requested and available for registration domain names for every applicant should not exceed 40 names.
The Registry will remove all requested (and still not registered) domain names above this number, leaving the earliest requested 40 domain names.
- The number of domain names that can be placed in the waiting list is limited to 40 names per applicant.
The Registry will remove from the waiting list all domain name requests which exceed the limit, leaving the earliest requested 40 names.[2]
