.mq domains
Information and use of .mq domains
The .mq domain extension represents Martinique, a beautiful island in the French Caribbean. Since its launch, .mq has been a symbol of local identity for businesses, organizations, and individuals who wish to reflect their connection to this charming region. Managed by Mediaserv, .mq has become a popular choice for those looking to highlight their presence in Martinique, especially in sectors like tourism, gastronomy, and culture.
Registering a .mq domain reinforces your link to the island and improves your positioning in localized search engines. Additionally, it is an excellent way to demonstrate authenticity and credibility to an audience that values local inputs. In summary, a .mq domain not only connects your brand with Martinique but also provides a significant competitive advantage in the digital realm.

The expiration date changes but a full year isn't added. The new expiration date is calculated by adding a year to the transfer completion date.
Renewals
Renewal of .MQ domains works differently from other extensions.
The domain renewal must be requested at least 21 days before its expiration date.
If the renewal request is made after that date, successful renewal is not guaranteed.
Cancellations
It's possible to request the cancellation of a .MQ domain; you must do so via ticket (support area). Please note that canceling a domain does not entitle you to a refund of the amount paid for it.
DNS modifications
DNS changes are immediate, but please note that they must propagate through the network. This process usually takes between 6 and 12 hours to complete; until then, the domain will keep pointing to the previous DNS servers.
Domain owner change
.MQ domains allow automatic ownership changes, so you can change this information from your customer area.

- A hyphen '-' is not permitted in the first or last position of the domain name.
