Register a .video Domain From 15.83 USD

Q: Does the first-year price continue every year?

Not necessarily. The registration figure is [th_price tld="video"]; the separate renewal figure is [th_price tld="video" type="renew"]. Plan ongoing costs from the renewal amount and review the payable total before each order.

Clear. Content-focused. Yours.

An Address Built for Moving Pictures.

Imagine the name that appears on your channel banner, pitch deck or production credit. .video places that name under an extension that immediately signals motion and media. For a project such as frame.video, it can gather viewer traffic, client enquiries and collaboration requests under one consistent destination.

Lead with a name people already recognise. Use your studio, channel or project title, or a straightforward variation, instead of a long generic link.
Make the medium obvious. Creators, production houses and streaming initiatives can all use .video across promotional materials and digital profiles.
Leave room to expand. Start with a simple showreel page; add series, courses or a members area later without changing the core address.

Illustrative media identity: Frame Studio uses .video for its public site and contact address.

Match the ending to your audience

.video, .studio or .com?

Who do you mainly want to reach? A specialist production brand, a broader creative practice and an international audience may prefer different suffixes. Weigh that focus against name availability and long-term cost.

Practical ways the address can work

A .video Domain for the Content You Are Building

A domain becomes useful when people actually use it. These examples show how one address can support a public presence, a library of work or a developing media brand.

Find Your .video

Independent Creator

Make Your Work Easy to Find

Offer one consistent address for reels, episodes and first contact.

Production House

Present Your Portfolio Online

Link the domain to showreels, client work and booking forms, then print it on business cards and pitch materials.

Education & Series

Help Learners Locate the Right Material

Share programmes, episode lists and access details without relying solely on platform algorithms.

Name Consistency

Cover the Ways People Search for You

When both spellings are free, register .video and a matching general ending, then point one to the other.

After the name is secured

.video Domain Management, Made Clear

How to Put Your .video Domain to Work

Someone may first discover your work online, send a message and later access a library or series. Each step can share the same identity. Apply each service’s DNS requirements; different providers can still operate behind one domain.

Confirm the spelling first

.video Domain Name Rules

Write the exact spelling before you search. The label to the left of .video must follow the registry’s format rules, and a correctly formed spelling can still be reserved or already held by someone else.

Accepted in a .video name

Plain English letters without accent marks
Digits, including any that form part of your project name
A hyphen between words, never at the start or end
Combinations such as frame-studio24

Not accepted

Beginning or ending the label with a hyphen
Spaces, underscores or other symbols
Characters that require internationalised-domain encoding in restricted contexts
Reserved spellings and names already held by others

Check Sample Spellings

Candidate	Format Check	Explanation
`frame.video`	Valid spelling	Uses only permitted characters
`frame-studio24.video`	Valid spelling	Combines letters, a middle hyphen and digits
`-frame.video`	Invalid spelling	A leading hyphen breaks the format rule
`frame_studio.video`	Invalid spelling	The underscore falls outside the allowed character set

Gather the details you will need

Your .video Registration Checklist

Individuals, studios and organisations may apply for .video. No special industry credential is required. Provide accurate details for the person or body that will hold the registration.

Information you need

The legal holder’s full personal or organisational identity
An inbox that will receive registration notices
Correct contact and postal information for the holder
Your chosen spelling, already checked against the permitted format

What registration does not supply

Official industry accreditation or distribution rights
Exclusive legal rights to a project or trading name
Hosted mailboxes or web hosting as part of the name alone
A permanent registration with no future payments

Before you register

Check related endings

Think about how someone who hears your project name might type it. Search any important variation before printing an address you may later want to change.

Review existing rights

A successful availability check is not a trade-mark clearance. Look at existing brands and relevant rights before adopting a name for public use.

Use a lasting email address

Select an inbox you can still reach even if this domain later becomes unavailable. That simplifies registration queries and urgent account notices.

Protect a working address

What Happens If .video Expires?

An expired address can interrupt more than a website: contact forms, access links and collaboration messages may all depend on it. Arrange renewal before the end date. The registry’s recovery window is a final chance, not a planned renewal method.

01Resolving

Active

Confirm that payment arrangements and contact details remain usable while the registration is current.

02Action due

Renewal Due

The displayed renewal charge is TSh 121,316. Complete payment early, especially if approval from another person is required.

03Grace period

Expired

During the initial grace window after expiry the address may still resolve. Act at once rather than treating continued service as proof of renewal.

04Redemption

Recovery window

Once suspension begins, connected services stop. Recovery may still be possible for a limited time and can involve extra fees.

05Released

Cancelled

After the recovery window closes the unrenewed name is scheduled for release. Another party may then register it; recovery is no longer assured.

Select a registration period

Change registrar without renaming

Already Hold a .video Domain?

You can switch the registrar without selecting a new project address. Prepare account access and DNS details first, then follow the standard transfer process. Registrar transfer and website migration remain separate tasks.

Transfer — TSh 95,316

01
Prepare account access
Locate the current registrar login and confirm who is authorised to request changes. Keep a record of the working DNS configuration.
02
Start the receiving order
Begin a Truehost transfer for the exact .video spelling and obtain the instructions for accepting it.
03
Finish the transfer steps
Follow the authorisation process from the current registrar and Truehost. Confirm that existing website and mail destinations remain correct after the handover.

Questions before you decide

.video Domain FAQs

Practical answers for creators and media projects choosing an address, connecting services or moving an existing registration.

Is .video limited to professional video companies?

No. Any individual or organisation may hold a .video registration. There is no industry credential or special eligibility requirement. The applicant must still supply accurate details and meet the registry’s terms.

Does the first-year price continue every year?

Not necessarily. The registration figure is 15.83 USD; the separate renewal figure is TSh 121,316. Plan ongoing costs from the renewal amount and review the payable total before each order.

Does .video improve search rankings?

No ending guarantees a ranking position. Choose an address that fits your project, then focus on useful content, a usable website and a clear description of the work. The domain should support that effort, not replace it.

Can I register the name before the website is finished?

Yes. You can secure an available registration while the site is still being planned. Keep contact details and renewal arrangements up to date, and connect hosting when you have pages ready to publish.

Does registration include a working email inbox?

No hosted mailbox is created simply by registering an address. Choose a mailbox product if you need to send and receive project email; a forwarding feature serves a different purpose and routes messages into an existing inbox.

Must website and email use the same provider?

No. Your website can use one compatible platform and your mail another. Apply each provider’s DNS instructions carefully so a website change does not unintentionally interrupt incoming messages.

Can I keep .video indefinitely?

You can retain the registration by renewing it while eligible and complying with the applicable terms. It is not a one-time permanent purchase. The registry allows durations up to ten years; the options offered in your order appear at checkout.

What if my preferred project name is already taken?

Try a clear, relevant variation that people can remember, or consider a different ending. Avoid a confusing imitation of another brand. Do not assume that an inactive-looking website means the registration is available to buy.

Should a matching .com point to the same website?

If you control both registrations, you can choose a primary address and configure the other to redirect there. Buying .video does not automatically give you .com; check and acquire the matching registration separately if it matters to your project.

Why must registration details stay accurate?

The registry or registrar may need to contact you about the registration. Outdated details can make validation, account recovery and urgent notices harder to handle. Update them when your project moves, changes ownership or replaces its contact inbox.

Is transferring a .video domain the same as moving hosting?

No. A registrar transfer changes who administers the registration. Website files, databases and mailboxes may remain where they are. If you also want new hosting, plan that migration separately and coordinate any DNS changes.

Can I recover a .video after services stop?

Possibly, if the registration is still inside the registry’s recovery window. Contact the registrar promptly once expiry is noticed; once the name is fully released, recovery is no longer guaranteed and another party may register it.
