.ng and .com.ng Availability Checker
Check Nigerian extensions and see the Naira price.
How it works
Is your name free on .ng, .com.ng or .org.ng? Priced in Naira
Type a business name and we check every Nigerian extension we sell, live against the NiRA registry through our registrar connection. Each result shows the first-year price and the renewal price in Naira and in US dollars, so you can see exactly what Paystack will charge at checkout and what the name costs to keep. Nothing is cached, no account is needed, and a free name can go straight into your cart.
Results appear here after you click Check Nigerian extensions.

Frequently asked questions
- How much does a .com.ng domain cost in Nigeria?
- On MailShrine a .com.ng is priced live in Naira and shown above with its renewal price; it is the cheapest member of the .ng family. The short .ng extension costs several times more because NiRA charges registrars a premium wholesale fee for second-level names.
- Can a foreigner register a .ng or .com.ng domain?
- Yes. NiRA opened .ng and .com.ng to anyone in the world, so you do not need a Nigerian address, CAC certificate or NIN. Only restricted zones such as .gov.ng and .edu.ng require eligibility documents.
- What is the difference between .ng and .com.ng?
- .ng is the short national extension that sits directly under the country code, which makes it scarcer and more expensive. .com.ng is the second-level commercial zone most Nigerian businesses use; it costs far less and is what customers tend to type.
- Why is a .ng domain so expensive compared with .com?
- NiRA sets a high wholesale price for second-level .ng names to keep the namespace premium, and every registrar passes that on. A .com costs about $12.99 a year here, while a .ng is a premium national asset priced accordingly; .com.ng sits in between.
- Can I pay for a .ng domain with Paystack?
- Yes. Pick Naira at checkout and Paystack handles the card, bank transfer or USSD payment. The Naira price shown in this tool is the full amount; WHOIS privacy, transfer lock and two business mailboxes are included.
Every MailShrine domain includes WHOIS privacy, transfer lock, Anycast DNS with DNSSEC and two business mailboxes.
