Plan the Registration Beyond the Minimum Term

.ai requires a 2-year minimum. A longer registration can reduce the number of renewal transactions while you build. The table uses priced catalogue terms rather than multiplying an introductory offer. Any saving is measured against today’s registration-and-renewal path, not a guaranteed future rate.

Current catalogue prices. Savings compare the total with the minimum 2-year registration plus subsequent renewals at today’s rates. Future renewal rates may change. Only available priced terms are listed.
.ai: registration TSh 481,000 (researched ≈ $90.19); renewal TSh 277,134 (researched ≈ $106.59) per term.

Select your term in checkout. Domain availability, applicable promotions, premium-name pricing and taxes are confirmed there. Estimates use Truehost catalogue research (registration ≈ $90.19 + renewal ≈ $106.59 per additional 2-year term). Live prices are loaded by the shortcodes and may differ slightly at checkout. Exact multi-year totals depend on how the catalogue prices the longer terms.
