Register domain name .ga

.ga
The .ga top-level domain is the country-code domain (ccTLD) for Gabon. According to IANA, the .ga domain’s registration date is 1994-12-12.
The management of .ga has changed over time: it was first delegated in 1994, later redelegated to national telecom structures, and in 2013 it was redelegated to ANINF (a public agency in Gabon) to manage the .ga namespace.
In the current naming organization, ANINF acts as the registry, with AFNIC providing registry technical services (as reflected in registry documentation).

What is .ga domain?
A .ga domain is primarily used to represent a presence connected to Gabon. It can fit organizations, projects, and brands that work in (or with) Gabon — and it’s also chosen for short, memorable naming in cases where “ga” matches a brand, product, or acronym.
At the same time, .ga remains a ccTLD: it is inherently tied to a specific country, which can be a strong country-targeting signal for search engines.

.ga domain peculiar traits
AlexHost can help you register a .ga domain and explain the rules that matter before you buy. The key point: eligibility is not “anything goes.”
The .ga registration policy requires the registrant to be a natural person or legal entity and to be able to prove a link to Gabon — for example residence in Gabon, activities in Gabon, or another direct/indirect connection. The registry may refuse, suspend, or delete domains that do not meet eligibility criteria.

The .ga zone domain registration can be useful if you need:

• Versatility (a fit for local and international projects with a Gabon connection).

• Country relevance (a ccTLD can signal a specific country audience to users and search engines).

• Brand clarity (short, clean naming when “ga” matches your brand logic).

• A formal namespace (useful for organizations, communities, and public-facing projects).
