Questions before you register or transfer a .LIMITED domain?
Short answers about .LIMITED eligibility, naming, transfer, DNS, bulk registration, reseller API use, renewal, and policy considerations.
What is a .LIMITED domain and who operates it?
.LIMITED is a generic top-level domain designed for company, corporate, holding, and professional-service naming. The registry operator is Binky Moon, LLC, and the extension is managed within the Identity Digital registry portfolio.
Is .LIMITED restricted to legally incorporated limited companies?
.LIMITED is generally open to eligible registrants worldwide and does not normally require proof that the registrant is a legally incorporated limited company. However, the domain must not be used to misrepresent legal status, and buyers should check local company-name, trademark, and advertising rules.
Who should choose a .LIMITED domain?
The extension can suit operating companies, holding groups, subsidiaries, professional firms, project companies, investment entities, agencies, and brands whose official or public-facing name naturally includes “Limited.” Use the .LIMITED availability search to test the shortest clear version of the name.
How is .LIMITED different from .LTD, .LLC, or .COMPANY?
.LIMITED spells out the full company term and can feel more formal or explicit. .LTD is shorter, .LLC refers to a specific legal form in some jurisdictions, and .COMPANY is broader. The best choice should match the organization’s real name, market, and legal presentation.
What naming rules should I consider for a .LIMITED domain?
A standard label can generally contain letters, numbers, and interior hyphens, with a maximum length of 63 characters. Avoid wording that falsely suggests incorporation, government approval, professional authorization, or ownership of another party’s trademark. Availability, reserved names, and premium pricing should be checked before registration.
Can I transfer a .LIMITED domain to NiceNIC?
Yes, when the domain is eligible for transfer. Unlock it at the current registrar, obtain the Auth Code or EPP code, confirm access to the registrant email, and submit the request through the NiceNIC domain transfer page.
Can I use a .LIMITED domain for a website and business email?
Yes. After registration, configure the nameservers or DNS records required by the website host, email provider, client portal, or other business platform. The domain extension does not limit the hosting or email service you choose.
Does NiceNIC support bulk .LIMITED registration and reseller API use?
Yes. NiceNIC supports bulk domain workflows and reseller API integration for agencies, corporate service providers, hosting companies, developers, and portfolio owners managing multiple business names.
What should I know about .LIMITED renewal, disputes, and acceptable use?
Renew before expiration, keep registrant information accurate, and monitor account notices. .LIMITED registrations remain subject to the registration agreement, registry policies, ICANN requirements, trademark dispute procedures, and acceptable-use rules addressing abuse, fraud, impersonation, and unlawful activity.
