.mx and .com.mx domains are Mexico's country code top-level domains (ccTLD), specifically designed for businesses and individuals operating in Mexico.

Registration Requirements:

  • Must comply with specific TLD registry policies
  • Different rules apply compared to standard domain extensions
  • Special requirements vary by registrar

Expiration and Renewal Process:

Tucows Registrar:

  • 30-day redemption period after expiration
  • Must contact Tucows directly for renewal during this period
  • Domains return to registrar after expiration
  • No renewal possible through original platform

Key-Systems Registrar:

  • Approximately 30-day renewal window after expiration
  • Domain must be renewed while still visible in account dashboard
  • Contact support for potential reactivation if renewal window passes

Important Considerations:

  • Pricing varies (check domain search page or dashboard for current rates)
  • Different rules apply for third-party domain connections
  • Registration and transfer policies are stricter than standard domains
  • Follow local Mexican regulations for domain usage

These domains offer strong local presence for Mexican businesses and organizations while providing the same technical capabilities as other domain extensions.

Note: Specific pricing and requirements may change based on registry policies and registrar terms.
