Application Form for a New Domain Name (download)

This form is used to apply for a new domain name or to register an existing domain name already in use with the CSC.

The following situations will require a domain name registration with the CSC:

• Using the University's funding to subscribe an external domain name ( that is, domain name that does not belong to ".cityu.edu.hk" regardless whether it is or will be hosted by a domain name server at the University, a department, or an external party);
• Using the University's funding to subscribe to an Internet service offered by an external party and accessible through any domain name;
• Using the University resources (manpower, network bandwidth, equipment, funding, etc.) to host an Internet service accessible through an external domain name;
• Any new sub-domain name to be created immediately under cityu.edu.hk such as <department name>.cityu.edu.hk, or name of a University-wide service such as <service>.cityu.edu.hk
• Any new sub-domain name to be hosted by the CSC managed domain name server on behalf of a department such as <nodename or service name>.<department name>.cityu.edu.hk, or
• Any department/unit/office of or any member of the University (staff, students, alumni, etc.) provides an Internet service accessible through any domain name and without using any University resources but involves the University's business, reputation, image etc.

If the application is approved, the domain name concerned and/or the Internet service pointed by it will automatically be registered with the CSC. All University domain names by default will be served by the University DNS server maintained by the CSC. Depending on situation, external domains may be served by the University DNS servers or served by external DNS servers.

Please note that the FO will not make reimbursement or process purchase order for the subscription or renewal of any domain name and/or the service pointed by it which has not been approved through the above process, so it is advisable that departments or authorized staff should not make any advance payment in any form for these subscriptions or renewal services without prior approval.
