Overview

.sg domains signal Singapore presence and credibility. The catch: SGNIC requires a registrant with a local presence (NRIC, FIN, UEN). Here's what counts.

Eligibility

.sg domains require a Singapore NRIC, FIN, or UEN as the registrant. If you have one, you're eligible. If not, you'll need a local entity or proxy registrar.

Where to buy

VodaHost, Hexogen, Vodien, ExabytesSG — all accredited SGNIC registrars. Pricing: SGD 50-100/year typically.

After purchase

Same Vercel-DNS pattern as Namecheap — set Vercel's nameservers in the registrar's admin UI. The pointing flow is identical regardless of TLD.
