01 / Overview
What is .mil?
The .mil extension is one of the original top level domains from the 1980s. The .mil extension is reserved for the United States Department of Defense and its branches.
.mil has an eligibility check. Only the United States military can register a .mil domain. It is not available to any other government, company or person. Proof of eligibility is needed. The registry checks it before the domain goes live. Send us the papers on WhatsApp or email and we handle the registry side.
A Pakistani defence body cannot use .mil. Pakistani military sites use .gov.pk or .mil.pk instead. That is the kind of use .mil is built for.
You can register .mil for 1 to 1 years at a time. Renew before the expiry date to keep your website and email running. If it expires, there is a redemption window of about 30 days, but the restore fee is higher than a normal renewal.
Moving .mil to DomainWalay is simple. Unlock the domain at your current provider, get the auth code (also called EPP code), and start the transfer here. New registrations and recent transfers have a 60 day lock. Most transfers finish in 5 to 7 days.

transfer rules for .mil
Renew .mil any time before expiry. Auto renew is available in the client area. After expiry there is a grace period of about 30 days where renewal is still at the normal price, but the website may stop working. After that comes a redemption period of about 30 days with a higher restore fee. When all periods end, the name is released and anyone can register it.
Transfers of .mil need the domain to be unlocked and a valid auth code from the current registrar. A domain cannot move within 60 days of registration or a previous transfer. The registrant email must approve the request. Typical time is 5 to 7 days. Eligibility rules also apply to the new owner.
A .mil name goes through these stages: Active for the paid term, then Expired with a grace period of about 30 days, then Redemption for about 30 days, then Pending delete, then released.
DNSSEC is supported for .mil. You can add DS records from your DNS panel once your DNS provider signs the zone.
