.tr domain registration from Pakistan
.tr is the country code for Türkiye. For years you could only get names like brand.com.tr, and only with paperwork. That changed in stages: from 14 September 2022 the common .com.tr, .net.tr and .org.tr names became first-come first-served with no documents, and from 4 September 2024 anyone could apply for a direct name such as brand.tr. We register .tr names in your own name through one of the registrars licensed by the registry.
Price and how to order

Search any name on the availability checker, or go straight to the order form. We confirm availability before registering, you pay in rupees by bank transfer, Raast, JazzCash or Easypaisa, and the domain is registered in your own name.
Who uses .tr
- Pakistani exporters selling to Turkish buyers
- Sialkot and Faisalabad firms with Turkish distributors
- Travel, education and halal-food brands aimed at Türkiye
- Companies with a Turkish office or partner
- Brand owners protecting their name in a large market
Pakistan and Türkiye have long-standing political and trade links, and Turkish buyers tend to trust a local address. A Sialkot sports-goods maker or a Faisalabad textile mill that ships to Istanbul distributors can run a Turkish-language site on brand.tr while its main site stays on .com or .pk. We confirm the name is free, file it in your name through a registrar, and take payment in rupees by bank transfer, Raast, JazzCash or Easypaisa, aiming to file on the same working day the money arrives; our price is on /pricing/ or we quote it on WhatsApp.
Eligibility and rules
Who may register: Open on paper to any individual or company. The Internet Domain Names Regulation (Art. 7) lets any natural or legal person apply and sets no citizenship or residency test for .tr, .com.tr, .net.tr and .org.tr. In practice the registrar's form asks an individual for a Turkish ID number or a Turkish-issued foreigner ID number and a company for a tax number (Communiqué Art. 14); we have not confirmed what a Pakistani applicant with neither should enter. The restricted extensions (av.tr, dr.tr, edu.tr, gov.tr, k12.tr, kep.tr, bel.tr, pol.tr, tsk.tr) need Turkish professional or official papers.
- Name part: 2 to 63 characters, letters a-z, digits 0-9 and hyphen only; no hyphen at the start or end, and the 3rd and 4th characters cannot both be hyphens (Regulation Art. 6). Turkish letters such as ç, ğ, ı, ö, ş, ü are outside that set, so they cannot be used.
- Direct .tr names registered first-come first-served must have at least 4 characters before the dot; 2- and 3-character .tr names are only released when the registry announces it (BTK decision 2023/K-BTD/244, Annex 1 Art. 14).
- Term: 1 to 5 years per registration, and the term after a renewal cannot exceed 5 years. Your registrar must warn you by e-mail at least 3 months before expiry (Regulation Art. 8-9; TRABİS FAQ).
- After expiry the name is suspended for 2 months and can still be renewed in that window; otherwise it is released and stays closed to new applications for 1 month (Regulation Art. 9 and 12).
- Registrar change: the registry refuses a move to another registrar within 60 days of first registration or of an earlier move (Communiqué Art. 25). Sale to a third party was barred for the first 3 years after TRABİS went live on 14 September 2022, so until 14 September 2025; transfer by inheritance, merger or with a trade mark was allowed throughout (Regulation Art. 13, Art. 33 and Provisional Art. 2; Communiqué Art. 22). We have not confirmed how sales work in practice since then.
- WHOIS: for an individual, name, address and e-mail are shown only with explicit consent, otherwise an anonymised e-mail is published; company details are published (Communiqué Art. 19). No documents are needed for .tr, .com.tr, .net.tr, .org.tr, .gen.tr, .web.tr, .name.tr, .info.tr, .biz.tr, .tv.tr, .bbs.tr and .tel.tr. The registry-level fee for a first-come first-served .tr registration or renewal was set at 100 TL including VAT in the August 2023 decision (2023/K-BTD/244, Annex 2); fees are revised yearly and registrars set their own prices.
Questions about .tr
Can a Pakistani person or company register a .tr domain?
On paper, yes. The Turkish regulation lets any individual or company apply and sets no citizenship or residency rule for .tr, .com.tr, .net.tr and .org.tr. The registrar's form asks individuals for a Turkish or Turkish-issued foreigner ID number and companies for a tax number, so before taking payment we check with the registrar what a Pakistani applicant should give.
Do I need any documents for a .tr or .com.tr name?
No. .com.tr, .net.tr and .org.tr have been allocated first-come first-served without paperwork since 14 September 2022, and direct .tr names since 4 September 2024. Only restricted extensions such as av.tr (lawyers), dr.tr (doctors), edu.tr, gov.tr and k12.tr need Turkish professional or official documents, so we do not offer those.
What is the difference between brand.tr and brand.com.tr?
They work the same way; only the structure differs. Direct .tr names opened to the public on 4 September 2024 and need at least 4 characters before the dot. .com.tr has been around much longer, so many short names are already taken there.
How long can I register it for, and what if I forget to renew?
One to five years at a time, and the term after a renewal cannot go past five years. After expiry the name is suspended for two months and you can still renew it; after that it is released and reopened to the public a month later.
Can I use Turkish or Urdu letters in a .tr name?
No. Only a-z, 0-9 and the hyphen are allowed, so letters like ş, ğ or ü, and any Urdu script, cannot be used.
Will my personal details appear in WHOIS?
If you register as an individual, your name, address and e-mail are shown only if you give explicit consent; otherwise an anonymised e-mail is published. If you register as a company, the company details are public.
