Bottom line
Moniker gives the lowest 3-year cost for .ro: $29.67.
.ro is Romania's country-code domain, added to the root zone on 26 February 1993. It serves as the national online address for Romanian businesses, public bodies, and individuals.
RoTLD, a department of the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics (ICI Bucharest), has managed .ro since its inception. RoTLD operates the registry, sets the rules, and distributes domain names through accredited registrars.
Anyone can register a .ro name, no matter where they're based. You don't need to live in Romania or have a Romanian company to register directly under .ro.
Romania also has second-level endings, each with its own purpose. .com.ro is for businesses, .org.ro for non-profit and social organisations and .tm.ro for registered trademarks. Others include .info.ro, .nom.ro for individuals and .firm.ro. The rules are published in Romanian, so if you're registering from abroad, check the details with your registrar.
RoTLD's rules make one thing clear: getting a .ro name doesn't mean the registry recognises your legal right to it. If your name matches someone else's trademark or company name, they can still challenge it, and you could lose it. So it's worth checking trademarks before you register a brand name.
Romanian companies, online shops, government services, universities and individuals all use .ro. Romania also has a busy IT sector, and many Romanian tech companies keep a .ro address for their local presence while working with clients abroad.

How .ro second-level domains work
A second-level domain sits one step below .ro: instead of example.ro, a name is registered as example.com.ro, with com marking out one branch of the extension. We track 11 second-level extensions under .ro and 11 of them have registrar prices so far.
The .ro extension is managed by National Institute for R&D in Informatics. Who can register under each second level, and on what terms, is decided at the registry rather than by the registrar, and a few zones may be administered separately, so confirm eligibility with your registrar before buying.
A name under any of them has three labels — your name, the second level, then ro — and DNS works exactly as for any other domain. Registration data is published through the .ro WHOIS server, whois.rotld.ro. The .ro registry supports DNSSEC, so zones under its second levels can be signed and validated end to end.
