.IQ is the country-code top-level domain for Iraq. IANA lists the Communications and Media Commission as the ccTLD manager, and public TLD count snapshots place .IQ at about 9.0K registrations, making it a focused namespace for projects with an Iraq connection.

This chart places .IQ alongside major domain categories using Q1 2026 domain-name-base data. For buyers, .IQ is best evaluated by Iraq relevance, eligibility, documentation readiness, brand fit, and long-term use rather than global registration scale.
.IQ is a small, country-specific namespace. It is most useful when the domain supports a real Iraq market, organization, service, or identity need.
A .IQ domain can help users recognize a connection with Iraq, local services, organizations, media, education, or regional business activity.
Some .IQ registrations may require entity, identity, local presence, or trademark-related documents depending on the exact category and registry review.
Brands, agencies, and resellers can use .IQ selectively for regional protection, local campaigns, and Iraq-facing client projects.
Reliable multi-year .IQ growth data is limited, so this snapshot compares .IQ with selected Middle East and nearby ccTLDs for regional context.
Publicly reported premium .IQ domain sales suitable for a NiceNIC front-facing benchmark are limited, so this section does not display fixed sales bars. For buyers considering .IQ, the main value usually comes from Iraq relevance, eligibility fit, documentation readiness, and long-term use.
A local business, a brand team, an agency, and a reseller platform do not manage domains the same way. Choose the path that matches your use case, eligibility, and management needs.
Use .IQ when the website should clearly connect with Iraq, local customers, trade, services, media, or institutional activity.
Use .IQ when a country-specific identity supports trust and recognition among Iraq-related audiences.
Add .IQ when Iraq is part of a client rollout, defensive registration plan, or local campaign.
Offer .IQ with clear notes about eligibility, documents, and review timelines so clients know what to prepare.
If you already own .IQ domains elsewhere, transfer decisions should not be based only on one renewal invoice. Check transfer eligibility, ownership access, billing reliability, support response time, API needs, and long-term domain management.
Paste multiple .IQ names, remove duplicates, review the count, and continue to bulk registration. This is useful for domain investors, brand teams, agencies, hosting providers, and resellers.
Enter one name per line, with or without .IQ. The tool removes duplicates and prepares a clean list for bulk registration.
If your business sells hosting, websites, SaaS, agency services, or brand protection packages, NiceNIC reseller APIs can support domain registration, renewal, transfer, DNS, and account management.

Short answers for buyers who need to confirm .IQ status, registration handling, bulk search, transfer review, payment, or reseller/API support before continuing.
.IQ is the country-code top-level domain for Iraq. IANA lists the Communications and Media Commission as the .IQ ccTLD manager.
.IQ can fit Iraq-focused businesses, local organizations, public-facing projects, media, agencies, and brands that need a clear Iraq country signal.
.IQ availability can depend on current registry rules, exact domain category, and documentation requirements. Buyers should confirm eligibility before planning a launch around a .IQ name.
Depending on the registrant and domain type, .IQ handling may involve identity, company, trademark, local presence, or signed application documents. Prepare accurate information before ordering.
Yes, some buyers like .IQ because it can suggest intelligence, quality, or smart products. For a live project, make sure the name also fits registry requirements and does not create misleading claims.
Use the .IQ search box for one name, or use the bulk search section when checking local terms, brand variations, and client lists.
Transfer handling depends on registry support, current registrar status, and required documents. Review the domain transfer process before starting.
.IQ is better evaluated for real Iraq relevance, smart-brand fit, and long-term use. Public resale history is limited, and eligibility requirements may matter more than speculative demand.
Resellers can review NiceNIC reseller API options, but .IQ orders should be positioned with clear documentation and eligibility expectations.
Register a new .IQ, transfer an existing domain, or upgrade your account level for bulk registration and reseller API use.
