Prices are per year. Renewal is charged at the renew price.

Prices are shown in Kenyan shillings and exclude any applicable tax.

Choosing a domain name

Short, easy to say out loud, and hard to spell wrong. If a customer has to ask you how to spell it, it is the wrong name.

  • .co.ke is the right default for a Kenyan business — it tells customers where you are
  • .com is worth owning as well if it is free, so nobody else takes it
  • .or.ke suits non-profits and associations
  • .ac.ke and .sc.ke are for accredited institutions and schools

If the name you want is taken, try adding your town or what you do rather than a hyphen or a number — those get mistyped.

DNS records for a registered domain, including A, CNAME, MX and TXT entries

Transferring a domain you already own

Unlock the domain at your current registrar and ask them for the authorisation (EPP) code, then start the transfer here. Your remaining registration time comes with you, so you lose nothing by moving.

Your website and email keep working during the transfer as long as the DNS records stay the same.

The three steps of a domain transfer: unlock and get the EPP code, start the transfer, approve the email

What comes with every domain

  • Full DNS control

    Add A, CNAME, MX and TXT records yourself, at no extra cost.

  • Email ready

    Point mail at our hosting or anywhere else you like.

  • Renewals you control

    Renew for as many years as you want from the client area.

  • Help when you need it

    Our team handles the registry paperwork for restricted extensions.

Domain Registration: frequently asked questions

How much does a .co.ke domain cost?

Current prices for .co.ke and every other extension we offer are in the table above, shown in Kenyan shillings.

Can I transfer my domain to Hostsawa?

Yes. Unlock it at your current registrar, get the EPP code, and start the transfer here. Your remaining time transfers with the domain.

Do I have to host my site with you?

No. A domain registered here can point anywhere; you get full DNS control either way.

How quickly does a domain work?

.ke domains are usually active within minutes. International extensions can take a little longer to propagate across the internet.

Can I register a domain without hosting?

Yes, domains are sold on their own. You can add hosting later whenever you are ready.
