Rooted in Saint Vincent. Open to the world.
.VC is the country-code top-level domain of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, often called Saint Vincent. The country lies in the Lesser Antilles, in the southern Windward Islands of the West Indies, where the eastern Caribbean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean.
Registration is open worldwide. Beyond its geographical identity, .VC lends itself to several familiar abbreviations and memorable brand ideas.
Version Control & Video Conferencing
A natural abbreviation for developer tools, collaboration products and online communication.
Ventura County & Saint Vincent
A local identity for communities and businesses, with registration available to customers everywhere.
Você / “you”
In Portuguese, “vc” is a common informal abbreviation of “você”. A .COM.VC address can play on “com você” — “with you”.
Supported .VC extensions
Offer .VC alongside .COM.VC, .NET.VC and .ORG.VC through the same GlobalR account.

Prepare the name. Complete the application.
2–63 characters
Use Latin letters, digits 0–9 and hyphens. The name must not start or end with a hyphen; uppercase and lowercase are treated identically.
Reserved names
Some domains are reserved and can be registered only under special conditions. The registry publishes the reserved-name list and the conditions for registration.
Instant registration
The domain is activated once payment is complete and all requested documents, including payment confirmation, have been received.
Registrant details to collect
Complete information helps your customer’s registration proceed. Use your own name servers or the default servers.
Owner & address
- Organisation name for company registrations
- First name and last name
- Legal address
- Country, city and ZIP / postal code
Contact & name servers
- Phone number
- Email address
- Name servers (default servers may be used)
The registry may request missing data if the registrar or registrant submits incomplete information. If the requested details are not provided within 7 working days, the registry may suspend the domain.
Keep public contact details private
Owners who do not want their contact information displayed publicly can request private WHOIS registration under the applicable GDPR-related arrangements. Send special requests to info@globalr.com.
Request private WHOIS ↗Bring an existing .VC domain to GlobalR
Transfers use an EPP authorisation code and take 7 working days to complete. The owner can manage the domain with the gaining registrar after completion.
Check the domain
It must be active, unlocked and registered for more than 60 days. Inactive domains and those being deleted or in redemption are not eligible.
Request the EPP code
Obtain the code from the losing registrar and provide it to GlobalR, the gaining registrar, to start the request.
Approve the move
Both the losing registrar and administrative contact must approve. A refusal from either party causes the transfer to be denied.
One-week response window
No response from the losing registrar within one week counts as approval. No response from the administrative contact within the same week results in refusal.
Two-month restriction
A new request is refused if the domain was registered, transferred or refused a transfer less than two months ago.
Confirmation for everyone
When the process ends by approval, refusal or timeout, all three parties are notified by email.
NIC.VC is the registry service for .VC. A registry maintains administrative domain records, sets allocation policies and generates the DNS zone file containing each domain’s name servers. It can register domains itself or delegate registration to registrars.
GlobalR provides .VC registry access through its direct Afilias connection. Offer these domains to your clients without the lengthy, costly approval, testing and integration work involved in becoming a registrar yourself. Our gateway saves time and resources, with experienced support for setup and day-to-day operations.
The Afilias infrastructure is now part of Identity Digital; IANA lists Identity Digital as the technical contact for .VC.
Before your first .VC order
Is .VC only for Saint Vincent and the Grenadines?
No. The country-code domain belongs to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, but registration is open worldwide. It is also used for venture capital, version control, video conferencing and other brand ideas.
What are the prices for the four extensions?
.VC, .COM.VC, .NET.VC and .ORG.VC each cost $28.75 for registration, renewal or transfer. Restore is $86.25 for each extension. Registration and renewal prices are annual; transfer and restore prices are per operation.
How quickly is a .VC domain registered?
Registration is instant after payment is complete and all requested documents, including payment confirmation, are received. Reserved domains have special registration conditions.
What information must the registrant provide?
Organisation name for a company, first and last name, legal address, country, city, postal code, phone, email and name servers. Default servers may be used. Missing data requested by the registry must be provided within 7 working days to avoid possible suspension.
Can I request private WHOIS?
Yes. Email info@globalr.com if the owner does not want contact information shown publicly or has a special privacy request.
What can prevent a .VC transfer?
An inactive or locked domain, deletion or redemption status, a domain age of 60 days or less, or registration, transfer or refused transfer less than two months ago. A refusal by either approving party or no reply from the administrative contact within one week also prevents completion.
