How .zm second-level domains work
A second-level domain sits one step below .zm: instead of example.zm, a name is registered as example.co.zm, with co marking out one branch of the extension. We track 11 second-level extensions under .zm and 3 of them have registrar prices so far.
The .zm extension is managed by Zambia Information and Communications Technology Authority (ZICTA). 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 zm — and DNS works exactly as for any other domain. Registration data is published through the .zm WHOIS server, whois.zicta.zm, and over RDAP at https://rdap.nic.zm. The .zm registry supports DNSSEC, so zones under its second levels can be signed and validated end to end.
