Quick answer

.new is a new generic TLD for short action links that start a new task. Anyone can register a .new domain, but the registry requires that the name takes the visitor straight to a page where they create something new, such as a new document or order. You can register it from Pakistan with DomainWalay, pay in PKR, and manage DNS from one panel. Minimum term is 1 year, and a 60 day transfer lock applies after registration.

01 / Overview

What is .new?

Google requires every .new name to lead directly to a page that creates something new. The .new extension is for short action links that open a new item, like docs.new opens a new Google Doc.

There is no eligibility barrier for .new. Anyone can register a .new domain, but the registry requires that the name takes the visitor straight to a page where they create something new, such as a new document or order. Pay in PKR, add your nameservers and you are online.

Here is how it looks in real life. A Karachi invoicing startup can offer a link like bill.new that opens a blank invoice at once.

Terms run from 1 to 10 years. Longer terms lock in the price and avoid yearly reminders. Expired names can usually be restored within 30 days at a higher fee.

Moving .new to DomainWalay is simple. Unlock the domain at your current provider, get the auth code (also called EPP code), and start the transfer here. New registrations and recent transfers have a 60 day lock. Most transfers finish in 5 to 7 days.
