pendingCreate
ANRT validation in progress (additional information may be required).

Domain suspended due to failure to validate within the deadline.
Important Points
No WHOIS Privacy: WHOIS Privacy protection is not available for .ma domains — the holder's contact details remain publicly visible in the registry database.
Strict deadlines: Submit your identity documents before the deadline to avoid domain suspension.
Reactivation assistance: If your .ma domain is suspended (DNS blocked,
serverHoldstatus), our team will guide you through submitting the reactivation request.
How to Reactivate your .ma Domain
Follow these steps to diagnose serverHold and regularise the holder with ANRT.
Check WHOIS
Use our Suspension Checker to confirm if your domain is on serverHold and note the holder name.
Prepare Documents
Gather your national ID, Modèle 7 or passport. The document name must perfectly match the WHOIS holder.
Submit File
Send documents to your domain name provider. Then they can submit files to the ANRT.
Confirm Reactivation
Once ANRT lifts the hold (within a few days), Use our Suspension Checker to monitor the status and test your site.

Frequently Asked Questions
My .ma site stopped working: is it suspended?
First check WHOIS on mawhois.com. If the status shows serverHold, the domain is suspended by ANRT, not your host. Changing DNS or hosting will not fix it. Contact us, your domain name provider, and submit the required holder documents.
How long to reactivate a suspended .ma?
Once compliant documents are submitted, ANRT generally lifts serverHold within a few business days. Timing depends on file completeness and consistency between the WHOIS name and the documents. Act the day you discover the suspension to limit service interruption.
Can a suspended .ma be permanently deleted?
Yes. If the holder file is not regularised after suspension, ANRT may permanently delete the domain name. The .ma then becomes available for registration again. Do not delay action once serverHold appears.
