Seychelles ccTLD

Register a .sc domain

Register a .sc domain — Seychelles' open ccTLD, no residency required, one flat price for life. .sc is the official country-code domain for the Republic of Seychelles, administered by VCS (Pty) Limited, and it's open to anyone worldwide — no local presence, no Seychellois entity, no paperwork beyond the standard registration.

$151.50/yr Currently renews at $151.50/year. Minimum 1-year registration: $151.50 before tax. Privacy free

Who picks .sc?

  • Businesses, tour operators, and hospitality/travel brands actually operating in or marketing to the Seychelles
  • Companies or products whose initials or name naturally end in "sc" (looking for a short, memorable domain hack)
  • Buyers who want an uncrowded, unrestricted ccTLD alternative to .com without any eligibility hurdles

What it signals

Registering .sc signals either a real operating or tourism/hospitality connection to the Seychelles, or a deliberate choice of a short, unrestricted two-letter domain for a brand, initials, or niche project — since there's no residency gate, plenty of buyers pick it purely for the clean ".sc" ending rather than a Seychelles tie.

Pros

  • Genuinely open registry with zero eligibility gate: no residency, citizenship, or local-presence requirement to register at the .sc top level
  • Two-letter ending doubles as a natural abbreviation for company initials, not just a country code
  • Current registration and renewal rates are shown separately below; rates can change
  • Free WHOIS privacy included where the .sc registry permits it
  • Business email and setup help are available as separate services

Watch-outs

  • Current registration and renewal rates are shown separately below; rates can change
  • Shares the .sc namespace with a large pool of speculative and expired-drop registrations, so the ending alone doesn't carry brand trust
  • Second-level extensions (.com.sc, .org.sc, .net.sc) can carry their own separate eligibility rules distinct from the open top-level .sc — worth checking before assuming a subcategory works the same way

Registry restrictions

No residency, citizenship, or local-presence requirement to register at the .sc top level directly — open to individuals and organizations worldwide. .com.sc, .org.sc) may carry separate rules not covered here. Treat as medium-confidence pending fresh verification.
