.UK.IN Domain Registration — What You Get
.uk.in was opened in NIXI's zone expansion of 29 October 2021; it pairs two country codes in one label, which is why cross-border projects read it at a glance. The .in registry is run by NIXI, the National Internet Exchange of India, and uk.in follows the family rules: 1 to 10 year terms, DNSSEC support, and internationalised names available at the second level through India's own ৭ alphabets.
Names run 2 to 63 characters with letters, digits and inner hyphens. The registry asks for registrant verification — know-your-customer checks — before a new name resolves, and uk.in carries the same INR pricing on our billing as the rest of the family.
Who Can Register a uk.in Domain Name
Registration of .uk.in needs no membership, no trademark and no Indian address: the zone is open like the rest of the .in family post-2005. What the intent reading does is tell visitors what the name is for.
Enforcement, where it exists, is about identity and accuracy: KYC must finish before activation, and false registrant data is grounds for suspension. Nothing in the zone gates who may apply.
- Allowed characters: letters, digits and inner hyphens; 2 to 63 characters.
- Eligibility: open, first-come, first-served; no local-presence test.
- Verification: the registry's know-your-customer check must complete before the name resolves.
- Premium labels: quoted before payment when the registry prices a specific name higher.
What a uk.in Domain Is Used For
A .uk.in name is bought for the pairing: an exporter, a diaspora community, a student-agency or a trade service that works across the two countries and wants both codes in one glance.
Names that read naturally on the zone: londondesi.uk.in, ukimports.uk.in, britishindia.uk.in, eduintake.uk.in or wembleyfoods.uk.in. The label is short enough to say once and type twice.
.UK.IN Domain Registration Plans & Pricing (INR)
The listed .uk.in price is ₹809 for the first year and ₹877 at renewal, taken from billing.webji.in on 4 November 2026, before 18% GST. Short or common labels the registry marks premium quote higher.

WebJi billing prices, read on 4 November 2026 — the renewal column is what the second and later years cost, before 18% GST.
.UK.IN Renewal, Transfer and Expiry Rules
Each .uk.in registration is bought in 1-to-10-year blocks and renews at ₹877 a year for this zone. The registry mails renewal notices to the registrant contact; auto-renew removes the dependency on reading them.
A transfer needs the authorisation code the losing registrar must supply, and the unexpired term carries over. After expiry the name is suspended and eventually released by the registry; recovery inside that window is possible, and support quotes the exact figure before you commit.
uk.in vs .com and .in for an Indian Business
The extension is not a ranking factor: uk.in, .in and .com compete on content and links, not on the label. Choose .com (₹1,380/year) for the global default, .in (₹1,000/year) for the short Indian address, and uk.in (₹809/year) when the zone's reading — the UK-India bridge zone — the two codes in one label — is the message.
Many of our clients hold a uk.in name beside the direct .in or .com and redirect one to the other, so the brand is covered however a visitor types it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a uk.in domain cost in India?
On our billing, .uk.in costs ₹809 for year one and ₹877 at renewal, as read on 4 November 2026, before 18% GST. Premium labels are always quoted before payment.
Who can register a uk.in domain?
There is no eligibility gate: individuals and organisations anywhere can buy the name. The only check is the registry's know-your-customer verification of the registrant details you supply.
Does uk.in include WHOIS privacy?
Not from the registry: .in-family names expose the registrant record in WHOIS because NIXI offers no proxy. Use a business address and phone you are happy to show.
How do I transfer a uk.in domain to WebJi®?
The move needs the auth code the losing registrar issues on request; once entered here, the remaining term stays with the name. Our desk quotes timings for your specific registrar up front.
Is uk.in better than .in?
Neither outranks the other: content and links decide. .in (₹1,000/year) is the conventional choice; .uk.in (₹809/year) is the zone that says — the UK-India bridge zone — the two codes in one label — before the page loads.
Who buys .uk.in?
The UK-India lane: diaspora communities, import desks, education agents and British-Indian brands. Two country codes in one name state the corridor outright.
