.PK and .COM.PK Domain Registration in Pakistan

.pk and .com.pk prices: total term and renewal

A .pk or .com.pk domain is registered for at least two years. The table shows SAFI's listed price for the full two-year term and the two-year renewal price.

• SAFI's prices come from its domain order catalogue, checked on 24 October 2026. If your invoice shows a different amount, the invoice applies.
• PKNIC, the .pk registry, publishes its own registry fee: PKR 2,100 per year, charged for two years (PKR 4,200), for registrants in Pakistan, and a different rate for registrants or registrars outside Pakistan. That is the registry's price, not SAFI's retail price. Source: PKNIC pricing, checked 6 November 2026.
• Hosting and email are not included in the domain price.

Choosing between .pk and .com.pk

Both are Pakistani domains with the same listed price here. .pk is shorter; .com.pk is the long-established form for Pakistani businesses. If both are free, registering both and pointing one at the other protects the name.

• Check that the exact name is available in both before deciding.
• .gov.pk is a separate namespace for government bodies: .gov.pk requirements.
• Comparison guide: .pk vs .com.pk.

How registration through SAFI works

Search for the name, place the order, pay the invoice, and the registration is submitted to the registry after your payment is confirmed.

• Search on the domains page and add the name to your order.
• Enter the registrant details exactly as they appear on your CNIC or business documents; the registry may ask for them.
• Pay the invoice and send the payment reference.

Registrant ownership and account access

Register the domain with you or your business as the registrant. Check the registrant name on your order before paying; that record is what shows who owns the domain.

• Keep the registrant email and phone number current: renewal and verification messages go there.
• Ask support for a copy of the registry record after registration if you need it for your records.

Payment confirmation and registration timing

Registration starts after your payment has been confirmed, which is checked by hand. A paid invoice does not yet mean the domain is registered: the registry also has to process it.

• Pay with a method listed on payment methods and include the invoice number.
• Until the registration is complete, someone else can still register the same name.

Registering from outside Pakistan

You can order from the UK, USA, UAE, Canada, Australia or anywhere else and pay by PayPal or Payoneer. PKNIC lists a different registry rate when the registrant is outside Pakistan, so ask support for the total before ordering.

• Use your real address and contact details as the registrant.
• Registry rates: PKNIC pricing.

Nameservers, DNS, renewals and expiry

You can point the domain at SAFI hosting or any other host by changing its nameservers or DNS records. The domain renews every two years; renew before the expiry date so you do not lose it.

• The two-year renewal price is in the table above.
• What happens after expiry: grace and redemption periods.

What to check before buying a .pk or .com.pk domain

Check the exact name in both extensions. Compare the full registration term, renewal amount and transfer terms in the domain catalogue, then confirm the current quote for that name. Decide who will control the registrant details and DNS. Compare shared hosting or managed WordPress care separately if the name will serve a website.

• Read how .pk registration works, compare the .pk and .com.pk choices, then plan the rest of the website setup.
• Compare a .com name if the Pakistan extension does not fit the intended identity. For an existing name, use the renewal guidance and confirm the term rather than ordering the same name again.
