Overview

What is .tv.sy

.tv.sy is the extension for channels and video content under Syria’s code, and its tv is short for television. It is for a TV channel, a video platform or a video production company that wants an address telling visitors they will watch before they read.

On top of the owner’s documents, registering it asks for an accredited media organization license, the same license that registering .news.sy and .info.sy asks for. So it doesn’t suit a personal channel on video platforms without a license; and that same condition is what makes its address trusted by viewers.

Who it suits

For your field: is .tv.sy the best fit?

Every field has an extension that says something about it. Here is what .tv.sy says in each, and which extension completes it.

  • A licensed TV channel

    Excellent · The first choice

    It says “television” in two letters, and your media license is what the registration asks for.

    Register it with.tv.sy.sy

  • A video or live-streaming platform

    Good · A good fit

    It suits a platform with a media license; register the global .tv if your audience is also outside Syria.

    Register it with.tv.sy.tv

  • A video production company

    Good · A good fit

    For your showreel and clips, if you hold a media organization license.

    Register it with.tv.sy.media

  • A licensed news site

    Good · A good fit with .news.sy

    The same license opens .news.sy to you; register both for your written and filmed news.

    Register it with.news.sy.tv.sy

  • A creator without a license

    Consider another · Consider .me.sy

    It can’t be registered without a media license; .me.sy or the global .tv for your personal channel.

    Register it with.me.sy.tv

  • A company or store

    Consider another · Consider .com.sy

    The channels extension says nothing about your store; .com.sy is for business, with its commercial register.

    Register it with.com.sy.com
