Who can register a .sc.ke domain
Schools registered with the Ministry of Education.
What the registry asks for
The school’s Ministry of Education registration certificate. The domain is activated once the registry has approved it.
Worth knowing
The registration check is the point: a .sc.ke cannot be registered by somebody impersonating your school.
.sc.ke is run by KeNIC, which sets the rules for who may hold one and how transfers work. We file the registration with them on your behalf.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a .sc.ke domain cost in Kenya?
Registration is Ksh 1,300 a year and renewal is Ksh 1,300. We do not use a cheap first year and an expensive renewal — the price you register at is the price it renews at.
Who can register a .sc.ke domain?
Schools registered with the Ministry of Education.
What documents do I need for a .sc.ke domain?
The school’s Ministry of Education registration certificate. The domain is activated once the registry has approved it.
Can I transfer my .sc.ke domain to Hostsawa?
Yes. Unlock it at your current registrar, get the authorisation (EPP) code, and start the transfer here. A transfer costs Ksh 1,300 and adds a year to the registration. It completes within minutes. Your website and email keep working throughout, as long as the DNS records stay the same.
Do I need hosting as well?
No. A domain can be registered on its own and pointed anywhere you like, and you get full DNS control either way. Most people add hosting when they are ready to build the site.
Can I get email on a .sc.ke address?
Yes, with any hosting plan — unlimited mailboxes on your own domain, with spam filtering and webmail, readable in Outlook or on your phone.
How long until it works?
Usually within minutes of the order.
