With over 5,000 international domain names(e.g. .com, .net, .org) being registered each day by Internic, and over 500 Hong Kong domain names(e.g. .com.hk, .net.hk, .org.hk) being registered each month by HKNIC, the chance that your domain of choice being taken continues to increase.
(ref: HK Domain Name Growth Chat by HKNIC)

Despite establishing a web site and email service, having your own domain helps foster a professional image as well as promote the brand name of your customers. It also allows your customers to easily find your presence on the Internet when they are looking for information about your company.

HKIS will register your domain name for you with the appropriate registration body to ensure that your domain is not taken by anyone else.

How much does it cost?

HKIS will charge you HK$500 to register and park your domain name with a one-page temporary web site. Internic, the registration body for .com, .net, and .org domain names, or HKNIC, the registration body for .com.hk, .net.hk, .org.hk and .edu.hk domain names, will bill you separately for the registration. Internic will charge US$70 (two years at US$35) for any registration while HKNIC charges HK$200 per each .hk domain name for permanent use.(each modification of the Domain name info will cost HK$200) They will send you an invoice separately.

How can you find out if your domain name is available?

Use our Domain Name Availability Check to see if the domain name you want is available. If you find a domain name that you want, register now as it may not be available tomorrow. (We've actually had clients lose their preferred domain name because another person registered it just a few hours earlier.)

Why should I register my domain name via HKIS? Can I register directly with InterNIC or HKNIC?

When you determine that you are ready to develop your web presence, HKIS will be standing by, ready to help you! With a myriad of web hosting options to choose from, HKIS has the solution to all of your web hosting needs. If you decide to host with HKIS after using our Domain Reservation Service, we will waive the setup fee for Service Plan C to get your new HKIS account up and running quickly. (To upgrade, contact our staff or order directly using our secure HKIS Online Order System! ) Therefore, this domain rservation service is free of charge if you plan on using HKIS as your web provider after on.

However, if you are not sure whether you will join HKIS Service Plans, you are free to register your domain names directly with InterNIC or HKNIC.

To register a .com, .net or .org domain directly with InterNIC, please goto InterNIC registration page.

To register a .com.hk, .net.hk, .org.hk domain name, please goto HKNIC. (Please note that you must have 2 working nameservers serving the new domain before HKNIC can accept your application)
