When you register a .my family domain (such as .my, .com.my, .net.my, or .org.my), MYNIC may treat certain names as NEAP Reserved Names under Schedule D-2 of the Naming and Allocation Policy.
If your chosen name matches a reserved term, MYNIC can request additional documents before approving the registration — commonly a Letter of Undertaking and supporting evidence that you have a legitimate right to use the name.
When this applies
Reserved-name rules typically cover labels that include or resemble:
- Country or state names — for example Malaysia, Johor, Selangor, Penang, Sabah, Sarawak, and other states or federal territories
- Government-related terms — parliament, ministry, police, military, and similar wording
- Royal titles and institutions
- Religious terms
- Banking and finance terms
- Other geographical or country names
- Sensitive or restricted wording defined by the registry
Our domain order form checks your label against this Schedule D-2 list for .my family extensions and shows a warning when a potential match is found. Availability in search does not guarantee registry approval.
What you may need to provide
Depending on the matched term and your registrant type, MYNIC may ask for:
- A Letter of Undertaking explaining your intended use of the domain
- Supporting documents — for example SSM/ROB registration, society registration, or other proof of entitlement
- Additional clarification if the name includes a place name, government term, or other restricted category
Xantec reviews orders before submission and will contact you if registry documentation is required.
