.KE Third Level Domains are divided into various domain extensions which serve different functions as listed below: 

Supporting Documents

Some of the Domain Name extensions require “Supporting Documents” in order for them to be registered. These are:

.sc.ke

KeNIC will require a copy of the Certificate of Registration from the Ministry of Education. The document MUST also bear the name of the Entity. The document should classify the Entity as a Kindergaten, Primary or Secondary School

.go.ke

This domain requires supporting documents from the Department of Government IT Services (GITS) at the Ministry of Finance. GITS should give an Authority Letter to show that the Entity is a valid Government institution or Agency and authorized to register the domain name

.ac.ke

KeNIC will require either a copy of the Certificate of Registration from the relevant Ministry, a copy of the College Charter or a copy of the Act of Parliament that was passed to establish the Institute. The documents MUST bear the name of the Entity. The document should classify the Entity as a Tertiary Institution: Polytechnic, Technical Institute, College or University

All domains that require supporting documents will generate a ticket that will only be closed by the KeNIC Registry Services once the Supporting Documents have been received. Only when the Ticket is closed will the domain be published
