.COM.BR Domains

Last updated


Registering a .COM.BR domain at DNSimple always uses the domain trustee service, because the registry requires a local presence in Brazil. Registration can take up to three working days, and the domain needs working name servers before the registry accepts it.

Why does .COM.BR need a trustee?

The .COM.BR registry requires the registrant to have a local presence in Brazil. The trustee service meets that rule by acting as the registrant in the registry’s records, so you can register and manage the domain without your own Brazilian entity.

DNSimple adds the trustee service automatically when you register or transfer a .COM.BR domain. It is a recurring yearly service, and its fee is shown on the registration form.

Note

.COM.BR registrations can take up to three working days to complete.

What DNS setup does .COM.BR need?

The registry only accepts a registration if at least two name servers are answering authoritatively for the domain. Set up the domain’s DNS before you register, so that it resolves when the registry checks it. .COM.BR domains can have 2 to 6 name servers.

For the official registry policy, see the registry ruleset.

What else should I know about .COM.BR domains?

  • Name length: 2 to 26 characters.
  • WHOIS privacy: not available.
