Open Domains → Register a domain, select Find a domain, type the name you want and select Search. The console checks the registry live and shows which endings are free, with the first-year and renewal price. Select the ones you want, open the cart, choose the term, and go to checkout: enter the registrant contact, upload the documents if it is a Saudi domain, and pay from the wallet or by card.
What you need
- A Skyline Cloud account and a role that manages domains or billing.
- Wallet balance or a card for the first year.
- For a Saudi domain (.sa, .com.sa): a copy of your Commercial Registration, your VAT registration certificate and your National Address; the name on the CR must match the domain.
How do I register a domain?
Search. In the console menu open Domains → Register a domain and select Find a domain. Under Find your perfect domain type a name with or without an ending (yourbrand or yourbrand.com) and select Search. Searching is free.
Read the results. Each ending is checked live with the registry. A free name shows its price for the 1st year and what it renews at; a taken one shows Already registered. More endings and Suggestions offer alternatives, and Compare puts prices side by side.
Select and open the cart. Choose Select on each name you want, then open Your cart. Set the Registration term in years and keep Auto-renew on if the name must not lapse. The cart shows the Total today; select Proceed to checkout.
Add Saudi documents if asked. For a Saudi domain a step appears before payment: Saudi domain documents needed. Select Add documents and upload the CR copy, the VAT registration certificate and the National Address (PDF, JPG or PNG), then Continue to payment.
Enter the registrant contact. On the Checkout page fill in Registrant contact (WHOIS): name, email, phone, address, city, region, postal code and country.
Pay. Under Payment method choose Wallet balance or a card and select Pay. The domain then appears under My Domains with its expiry date.
What comes with a registered domain?
- WHOIS privacy at no extra charge on endings that support it, so your contact details are not published.
- DNS hosted inside the Kingdom, editable in the console.
- Auto-renew, paid from the wallet, so the name does not expire by accident.
- One place for the next steps: point the name at a website or server, or add it to Skyline Mail.
Prices differ by ending and change with the registries, so the live search is the price list.
Why do Saudi domains need documents?
The Saudi registry gives .sa names to the organisation they belong to, so it asks for proof: the Commercial Registration, the VAT certificate and the National Address, and the name on the CR must match the domain. The documents are uploaded once, before payment, and the cart then shows Documents on file.
If something goes wrong
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| Already registered | Someone else holds that name. Try another ending or one of the suggestions. If you own it at another registrar, use "Add a domain you own" instead. |
| Price not available | The registry did not answer for that ending. Search again in a moment. |
| Add the Saudi domain documents first | Payment stays locked until every Saudi domain in the cart has its documents. |
| The wallet balance is too low | Select Top up wallet, add the amount, and return to the cart; it keeps your selection. |
Frequently asked questions
Which endings can I register?
The search shows what is available for your name, including .com and Saudi endings such as .sa and .com.sa.
How long is a registration?
You choose the term in years in the cart, and the name renews after that.
Can I move a domain I already own to Skyline?
You can connect it without moving it: add it under "Add a domain you own" and keep your current registrar.
Do I have to host my website with Skyline to register a name?
No. A domain can be registered on its own and pointed anywhere with DNS.
