Pre-register your .mx name right now

As we mentioned before, the pre-registration period for .mx names starts pretty soon. This phase starts on May 1st but as from today you can pre-register your .mx domain name.

However during this pre-registration period there are some restrictions. Only the current owners of a Mexican domain name (for instance .com.mx, .net.mx,…) can register this name under the .mx extension. The name you want to register under .mx needs to be exactly the same as your current Mexican domain name. Moreover your current Mexican domain name needs to be registered before March 1st 2009.

The pre-registration period ends on July 31st 2009 and will be followed by the quiet period and the initial period. The quiet period starts on August 1st and last a month. During this phase, applications from the pre-registration period will be processed further. On September 1st the initial period begins and ends on October 31st. During this two months, everyone who wishes to do so, can register a .mx domain name. The applications will be treated on a first come, first served basis.
