.MY - MYNIC Malaysia Official Registrar - 2023 updates

As the digital economy continues to expand and evolve, the need for reliable and secure domain name services is becoming ever more important. This is especially true for Malaysian businesses who rely on a .MY domain name to represent their brand online.

  • .MY domain extension now can register/renewal up to 10 year MAX
  • There will be new changes to Renewal Grace Period/Redemption & Pending Delete like .COM domain

As such, MYNIC, the official registry for .MY domain names, has recently announced major changes to the .MY domain name lifecycle. This is a big step forward for the .MY domain name, and as an official MYNIC registrar, Big Domain (Big Domain Sdn Bhd) is excited to share the news.

Under the new .MY domain name lifecycle, you can now register or renew your .MY domain name for up to 10 years. This is a significant improvement from the previous 5-year limit.
These new changes will be updated in phase throughout 2023.

In addition to the increased renewal period, MYNIC has also introduced the process of a Renewal Grace Period, Redemption Grace Period and Pending Delete Phase into the domain lifecycle. This will ensure that your .MY domain names remain safe and secure, and that you remain in full control of your online assets.
