All prices in USD for a one-year term, as published by each registrar. Registry and ICANN fees are included where the registrar includes them; taxes are not. Confirm at checkout before buying.
Save $8.34 over five years by not staying put.
The cheapest single registrar for five years is NicNames at $216.50. Splitting the name across two registrars costs $208.16 — 4% less:
- Register at Spaceship for the first year.
- Transfer to Dotology before it renews. An inbound transfer adds a year, so this covers year two.
- Renew at Dotology for years three to five.
Registries require a name to be 60 days old before it can transfer, so plan the move for renewal time rather than straight after registering.

.tax frequently asked questions
01How much does a .tax domain cost?
The cheapest first year we found is $7.48 at Spaceship. Renewal matters more: the cheapest renewal is $50.17 at Dotology, so five years costs $208.16.
02Why is .tax renewal so much more than the first year?
The first year is a promotional price. Renewal runs 571% higher, which is the price you pay every year after. Registrars advertise the first number.
03What is the cheapest way to hold a .tax for five years?
Register at Spaceship, then transfer to Dotology before the first renewal — an inbound transfer adds a year. That costs $208.16 against $216.50 at the cheapest single registrar, saving $8.34.
04Who runs the .tax registry?
Binky Moon, LLC. Registrars sell .tax names on the registry's behalf; the registry sets the wholesale price.
05Is anyone allowed to register a .tax domain?
We have no record of an eligibility restriction on .tax. Registries can change policy, so confirm at the registrar before buying.
