Malaysia uses .my, .com.my, which requires a local presence to register. Below: who operates each namespace, what its rules actually constrain, the accredited local registrars, and how global registrars compare on price where we hold a sourced figure.
Of the 11 local storefronts read on 2026-09-29, IP ServerOne prints the lowest standing .my price: MYR 145.80 incl. VAT, computed from MYR 135.00 ex. VAT; MYR 120.00 first year. MYNIC accredits 41 registrars to sell .my; none of them is tested or scored here. Global registrars that sell .my in US dollars are the global option for a buyer in Malaysia, not a recommendation in it.
Registrars accredited by MYNIC Berhad
These 41 companies are accredited by the Malaysia registry to sell .my, .com.my, .net.my and 3 more. Every figure below is a fact the registry publishes, read from its accredited-registrar list on 2026-09-29.
MYNIC Berhad publishes 41 registrars under contract for .my, .com.my, .net.my, .org.my, .biz.my, .name.my. Of those, it lists 0 as offering DNSSEC.
We do not reproduce all 41 names here. Any order we printed them in would imply a ranking, and we have tested none of them. The registry's own list is the authority: MYNIC Berhad registrar list, read 2026-09-29.
We have not tested any of these registrars, so nothing here carries a price, a score or a ranking. Comparing them on price and service is work we have not done, and saying which is better would be invention.
Which registrars have a Malay site, bill in MYR and sell .my?
Three conditions decide whether a registrar can be recommended in Malaysia rather than merely to the world from it: an interface in an official language, billing in the local currency, and selling the local namespace. All three must hold. No registrar we track currently meets all three here.
The English storefront was read and Malay was not among them. Language switchers are often rendered in JavaScript, which this read cannot see, so this is not recorded as a "no".

Bills in USD only. "All prices are in USD" is a positive statement that no other billing currency is offered, so this is a recorded 'no' on every non-USD currency rather than an absence.

A dash is ignorance, not a failing grade: it means we have not established that condition either way. Several registrars render their language and currency switchers in JavaScript, which the read behind this table cannot see, so we record nothing rather than a false “no”. A currency that appears only in a display selector does not count as billing in that currency, because a converted price charged in dollars is exactly the case this condition exists to catch.
Where to buy a .my: MYNIC-accredited registrars, read from their own storefronts
Eleven of the 41 entries on MYNIC's Find Our Registrars page (MYNIC itself included) were opened in a real browser, plus Hostinger's Malaysian storefront. Six were read; Shinjiru and Everworks showed bot walls, Mesra a 404 and via.my and Web Visions HTTP 502. The pages read price .my at about RM120 a year, and only IP ServerOne states the tax treatment (subject to 8% SST). Malaysia has no VAT; the rate recorded is the 8% service tax.
Ordered by the standing .my price each registrar's own page printed on 2026-09-29: the renewal where the page states one, else the regular price, VAT included (added at 8% where the page states prices excluding it). Price only: this site has not tested their support, uptime or transfers, and none of them carries a score.

Best options in Malaysia
No registrar we track meets all three local conditions in Malaysia.
NameSilo, Porkbun, Gandi, Name.com, AWS Route 53 sell .my, but none of them has been established to bill in MYR or to run a Malay-language storefront. Where we have simply not checked, the table above says so rather than counting it against them.
For .my itself, the registry’s own accredited registrars are the route, and they are listed on this page above. We have not tested them, so we name them rather than rank them.
does not bill in MYR; no Malay-language storefront established
Verified .com renewal of $11.08. Not the cheapest .com we verify: Spaceship renews at $10.18, 9% less. Porkbun is the pick here for catalogue breadth, not for price. WHOIS privacy: free, included by default.
Buying a gTLD through an English-language registrar that bills in dollars is a real and common choice, so it is named with the trade stated rather than dropped. It is not a recommendation in Malaysia: the conditions it misses are in the column above.
Business use, globally
Namecheap
Support channels: 24/7 live chat, ticket support, knowledge base.
Developers, globally
Cloudflare Registrar
Industry-leading anycast DNS with deep developer tooling. Public API documented.
These two are the site’s global picks and are the same on every country page, which is why they are labelled globally and sit outside the table above. Nothing about a registrar’s API or its support channels changes at a border; what does change is language, billing currency and whether it can sell the local namespace, and that is what the eligibility table measures.
Local presence: Yes. MYNIC states .my is for Malaysian citizens and for non-Malaysians residing in Malaysia; .com.my is for business or commercial organisations and SMEs, evidenced by a current SSM certificate. Registrants must continue to meet the eligibility criteria for the whole subscription period.
DNSSEC: Signed at the root
IDN: .مليسيا (punycode .xn--mgbx4cd0ab) is delegated separately as Malaysia's Arabic-script ccTLD.
Eligibility is a registry rule, not a registrar rule: two registrars we track sell .my, but the MYNIC registrant policy still governs who may hold the name. An expired SSM certificate is not accepted as supporting documentation.
Purpose: Malaysia's country code at the second level, for individuals and organisations connected to Malaysia.
Eligibility: Restricted. MYNIC states .my is for Malaysian citizens and for non-Malaysians residing in Malaysia. Registrants must meet the eligibility criteria for the whole subscription period, not just at purchase.
Pricing fetched from each registrar's own pricing page on the date shown. Local registrars may bill in MYR and add VAT/GST/sales tax on top.
Eligibility is a registry rule, not a registrar rule. Two registrars we track sell .my and we verified their prices, but the MYNIC registrant policy still governs who may hold the name. Buy on the renewal figure rather than the first-year figure.
.com.my
Last checked 2026-08-19
Purpose: Commercial third level, the standard identity for a Malaysian company.
Eligibility: Restricted to business or commercial organisations and SMEs. MYNIC accepts a current Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia (SSM) certificate as supporting documentation; an expired certificate is not accepted.
Tracked registrars that sell .com.my
None of the registrars we track sell .com.my at retail: see the local registrar list below.
None of the registrars we track sell .com.my, so we hold no verified price for it. It is available through MYNIC's accredited Malaysian channel, which is also where the documentation check happens.

Compared across the 11 registrars whose .com price we have read ourselves.
Most global registrars price domains in USD; local registrars often invoice in MYR.
Can a registrar we track handle Malaysia?
.my is sold by 6 of the registrars whose prices we verify, renewing from $25.88: more than the cheapest verified .com at $10.18. .com.my is not sold by anyone we verify, so it needs a local or specialist registrar.
At $25.88 a year, .my is 110th of 295 by price among the extensions we verify: $15.70 more than the cheapest verified .com. The local extension is a premium here, not a saving.
Malaysia ccTLDs and whether a registrar we verify sells each one
Renewals are all-in and per year, at the cheapest registrar we verify for that extension, checked 2026-09-29. The .com reference is the cheapest verified .com renewal ($10.18). "Listed" counts registrars our country notes record as selling the extension without a price we have read ourselves.
What this page does not tell you: how the registrars based in Malaysia compare. We list 41 of them by name only, no prices, no scores, no hands-on testing, so any claim here that a local registrar is cheaper, better supported or easier to pay would be invention. Where local billing in Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), local-language support, or a registry rule requires a local registrar, that is a reason to use one, and comparing them is work we have not done. Malaysia also applies a local-presence or nexus requirement to at least one of its ccTLDs: see the registry rules above before assuming eligibility.
FAQ
What is the best domain registrar in Malaysia?+
Of the 11 local storefronts read on 2026-09-29, IP ServerOne prints the lowest standing .my price: MYR 145.80 incl. VAT, computed from MYR 135.00 ex. VAT; MYR 120.00 first year.

Global registrars that sell .my in US dollars are the global option for a buyer in Malaysia, not a recommendation in it.
Do I need a local presence to register a .my domain?+
Yes. MYNIC states .my is for Malaysian citizens and for non-Malaysians residing in Malaysia; .com.my is for business or commercial organisations and SMEs, evidenced by a current SSM certificate. Registrants must continue to meet the eligibility criteria for the whole subscription period.
Which global registrars sell .my?+
NameSilo, Porkbun, Gandi, Name.com, AWS Route 53. Eligibility is a registry rule, not a registrar rule. Two registrars we track sell .my and we verified their prices, but the MYNIC registrant policy still governs who may hold the name. Buy on the renewal figure rather than the first-year figure.
Which currency are domains billed in for users in Malaysia?+
Most global registrars bill in USD regardless of buyer location. Local registrars typically invoice in Malaysian Ringgit (MYR). Global registrars bill in USD and Malaysian cards generally work. Local providers invoice in ringgit with SST treatment and accept FPX online banking, which is the practical reason most Malaysian businesses buy locally.
