Register a .mu domain

Register a .mu domain for Mauritius-facing business — flat pricing, no residency required, no renewal surprises. MU-NIC, the Mauritius Network Information Centre, runs the registry and allows worldwide registration on a first-come, first-served basis — no local company or in-country contact needed. Modusdom prices .mu the same way we price everything else: one flat rate quoted up front, the same number at renewal.

$124.00/yr Renews at the same price. No tricks. Privacy free

Who picks .mu?

  • Tourism, hospitality, and travel businesses operating in or marketing to Mauritius
  • Offshore financial services, fund administration, and global business companies incorporated in Mauritius
  • Local Mauritian businesses and organizations that want a domain matching their country of incorporation

What it signals

Registering .mu tells visitors a business has a genuine footprint in or commitment to Mauritius — common among tourism operators, offshore financial and fund-management firms drawn to Mauritius's regulatory regime, and companies incorporating locally who want their web address to match their registered jurisdiction.

Pros

  • Worldwide, first-come-first-served allocation with no eligibility review, waiting period, residency, or local-contact requirement
  • Reads as a direct commitment to the Mauritian tourism, offshore-finance, or local-incorporation market — not a novelty pick
  • Flat renewal pricing from Modusdom — the quote you see is the quote you pay again next year
  • Done-for-you SPF/DKIM/DMARC email setup so mail from your .mu address doesn't land in spam

Watch-outs

  • OpenSRS registrar pricing for .mu tends to run higher than generic gTLDs since it's a smaller ccTLD registry — Modusdom is upfront that this isn't a bargain extension
  • Carries no brand recognition outside Indian Ocean/African business contexts, unlike domain-hack ccTLDs that read as English words to a global audience
  • Smaller registry means fewer bulk-discount or promo cycles than larger ccTLDs

Registry restrictions

Individuals and legal entities worldwide can register with no residency or local-presence requirement; MU-NIC requires legal entities to supply a company registration or VAT number as part of the application.
