What does a .fyi domain mean, and who runs it?
.fyi stands for "for your information" and is an unrestricted generic top-level domain whose registry manager is Binky Moon, LLC, part of Identity Digital. IANA lists it as delegated on 22 May 2015 to Silver Tigers, LLC. It passed to Binky Moon on 23 March 2018, in the bulk transfer that moved .academy and 195 other extensions.
Office workers in India use the abbreviation every day in email subject lines, so the ending needs no explanation. It tells the visitor to expect a notice, an explainer or a reference page rather than a sales pitch.

What do Indian publishers and teams build on .fyi?
.fyi works best for pages whose job is to inform: explainers, notices, status updates and reference lists. It is a poor choice for a shop and a strong one for anything a reader bookmarks to check later.
Scheme and tax explainers
CA firms and consultants who explain GST changes or subsidy schemes in plain language: gstchanges.fyi.
Company notices
An HR policy hub, a holiday calendar or a service-status page that staff and customers check: status-yourfirm.fyi.
Newsletters and fact files
Independent writers who send a weekly brief and keep an archive under one short address.
Product changelogs
SaaS teams that publish release notes apart from the marketing site, so updates are easy to share.
What does a .fyi domain cost compared with other information endings?
A .fyi domain costs ₹2,861 for the first year and ₹2,977 for each renewal at WebJi®, before 18% GST, which is ₹8,815 over three years. That three-year figure is ₹2,861 plus two renewals of ₹2,977. For long-lived reference sites the renewal column matters more than the first year.

What do you need to register a .fyi name?
You need only an available name, correct contact details and payment, because .fyi has no residency, profession or document requirement. Individuals, proprietors, LLPs, companies and trusts all qualify.
- Name format: 2–63 letters, digits or inner hyphens.
- Term: 1 to 10 years, renewed in whole years.
- Email: a mailbox you read, since ownership and renewal notices are confirmed there.
- GSTIN: optional, added only if you claim input credit.
.fyi or .info, .wiki and .in: which fits your project?
Use .fyi for short-form notices and explainers with a conversational tone, .info for a broad information portal, and .wiki when many people edit the content. None of them ranks better by itself in search, so judge them by how the full address reads aloud and in a WhatsApp forward.
If the audience is entirely Indian and the page belongs to a business, .in at ₹1,000 a year is cheaper and says "Indian" more clearly. A common pattern is the company on .in and its update or FAQ hub on a matching .fyi.
Hosting and running a .fyi site
Most .fyi projects are light, text-first sites, so inexpensive hosting is enough. A notice board or newsletter archive runs well as a static or WordPress site on shared hosting, and a mailbox such as updates@yourname.fyi works through business email. The renewal guide covers what happens if a payment is missed.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
When did .fyi become available?
IANA records the .fyi delegation to Silver Tigers, LLC on 21 May 2015, with the zone live in the root from 22 May 2015. Management moved to Binky Moon, LLC in March 2018. Public registration has been first-come, first-served since the launch phases ended.
Is .fyi taken seriously for a professional site?
For informational pages, yes. Readers already know "FYI" from office email, so a tax explainer or status page on .fyi looks purposeful. For a firm's main brand site, most Indian clients still expect .com or .in, so keep .fyi for the update or reference section.
Can a .fyi domain redirect to my existing website?
Yes. You can forward the whole .fyi name or a path such as yourfirm.fyi/budget to a page on your main site, using a 301 redirect at your host or DNS forwarding. It works well for printed notices and campaign links.
Are short .fyi names priced higher?
Some are. The registry sets premium prices for certain short or common words, and those names renew at the premium rate too. The search result marks them before you add them to the cart, so the ₹2,861 standard price applies only to non-premium names.
Does .fyi work with DNSSEC?
Yes. The .fyi zone carries a DS record at the root. Once your DNS host signs your zone, you lodge its DS record through the registrar and resolvers can validate your answers.
