Criteria for registering a .sch.ng domain name
Sch.ng is strictly for non-degree awarding educational institutes in Nigeria comprising of Primary and Secondary schools. This is the domain extension specifically designed for schools looking to gain recognition.
Since this domain is restricted only for primary and secondary educational institutes in Nigeria like schools etc., this is the reason why you need to submit documents to show that your school is certified by the government.
If you are looking to register a .sch.ng domain, endeavor to complete the requirements highlighted below;
- Proof in terms of Registration documents with the Corporate Affairs Commission of Nigeria (CAC) or partnership under relevant laws as evident in the Partnership laws of Federal Republic of Nigeria or registered business name/sole proprietor as defined by laws of Nigeria.
- Copy of Documents for authenticating accreditation by the government and relevant body for the provision of Non Degree awarding institutions.
- A letter from the head of the educational institution with the contact details of the institution.
After submitting these documents, we will send them to NIRA (.NG Domains Registry) for verification and subsequent approval. After the thorough verification of all your documents, they will activate your domain and then notify you once your domain is available and active for use.
In most cases, these processes and steps do not take more than 1 week.
