Any individual or legal entity can register a .AO domain, provided it is available upon search. During the ‘Sunrise’ period, preference is given to those who can prove legitimate ownership of trademarks or business names related to the requested domain.
Payments can be made in multiple currencies via major credit cards, PayPal, Multicaixa, or SEPA bank transfer to ExpanTLD’s IBAN. These options offer flexibility and convenience for all customers.
If a domain is not renewed before its expiration, it may be placed back on the market and made available for others to purchase. Renewal notices are sent as a courtesy, but it is the domain owner's responsibility to keep track of expiration dates.
Elligible domain registrations become permanent immediately after payment. In the 96 hours after registration we check that there are no conflicts registered trademarks, or prohibited content. During this period, in special cases, a panel of experts may review the registration and contact you.
