Register a .mu domain
Register a .mu domain for Mauritius-facing business — flat pricing, no residency required, no renewal surprises. MU-NIC, the Mauritius Network Information Centre, runs the registry and allows worldwide registration on a first-come, first-served basis — no local company or in-country contact needed. See current registration and renewal prices below.
Who picks .mu?
- Tourism, hospitality, and travel businesses operating in or marketing to Mauritius
- Offshore financial services, fund administration, and global business companies incorporated in Mauritius
- Local Mauritian businesses and organizations that want a domain matching their country of incorporation
What it signals
Registering .mu tells visitors a business has a genuine footprint in or commitment to Mauritius — common among tourism operators, offshore financial and fund-management firms drawn to Mauritius's regulatory regime, and companies incorporating locally who want their web address to match their registered jurisdiction.
Pros
- Worldwide, first-come-first-served allocation with no eligibility review, waiting period, residency, or local-contact requirement
- Reads as a direct commitment to the Mauritian tourism, offshore-finance, or local-incorporation market — not a novelty pick
- Current registration and renewal rates are shown separately below; rates can change
- Business email and setup help are available as separate services
Watch-outs
- OpenSRS registrar pricing for .mu tends to run higher than generic gTLDs since it's a smaller ccTLD registry — Modusdom is upfront that this isn't a bargain extension
- Carries no brand recognition outside Indian Ocean/African business contexts, unlike domain-hack ccTLDs that read as English words to a global audience
- Smaller registry means fewer bulk-discount or promo cycles than larger ccTLDs
Registry restrictions
Individuals and legal entities worldwide can register with no residency or local-presence requirement; MU-NIC requires legal entities to supply a company registration or VAT number as part of the application.
