About .tg domains
.TG is a country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) in the DNS root zone. It is designated for Togo. The IANA root zone lists the registry manager as Autorité de Régulation des Communications Electroniques et des Postes (ARCEP). Registration policies (who may register, local presence, pricing) are set by the registry and its accredited registrars — not by IANA.
.tg is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Togo. Although there are no restrictions on who can register domains in this TLD, it is not often used outside Togo. As of 2008, no online registration and domain maintenance features were available on the registry site, although a basic web-based whois capability is provided.
Who can register .tg domains?
Eligibility is defined by the registry operator and its registrars. Most gTLDs are open to anyone worldwide. Many ccTLDs are also open globally; some require local presence, citizenship, or trademark rights. Always confirm current policy with the registry or your registrar.
