Newly registered .IST domains per month

In the 30 days to , 175 new domains were added to the .IST zone file — about 5 per day. Over the last 12 months, 1,926 new .IST domains appeared.

Each monthly figure is the sum of daily additions: domain names in a day's zone file that were absent from the previous snapshot. A domain usually enters the zone file on the day it is registered, which is why these are treated as newly registered domains (NRDs); domains registered without nameservers are not in the zone file and are not counted.

Expired .IST domains per month

In the 30 days to , 103 domains were removed from the .IST zone file — about 3 per day. Over the last 12 months, 1,559 .IST domains were removed.

Each monthly figure is the sum of daily removals: domain names in the previous snapshot that are missing from a day's zone file. Most removals are expired or deleted registrations, but a domain also leaves the zone file while it is on hold or loses its nameservers, and can return later. A removed domain is not necessarily available to register.

.IST zone details

The .ist extension is a compact, flexible domain choice often used as an abbreviation (for example, institute, Istanbul, information science and technology) or as a component in wordplay and domain hacks. Typical use cases include academic departments, research groups, creative portfolios, local businesses, niche communities, and startups looking for a short, distinctive web address.

From a branding perspective, .ist conveys focus and expertise; it is perceived as modern and specialized without the generic feel of older global TLDs. Organizations choose it for memorability, concise URLs, and the ability to form descriptive or verb-like names (for example, using .ist to suggest a role or identity). That makes it useful for individuals promoting a profession (artist, cyclist) or for projects that want a clean, domain-driven name.

When selecting .ist, consider availability, registrar pricing and renewal terms, and brand-protection needs—short extensions can help create standout names but may require defensive registrations across other zones. Like any TLD, .ist does not by itself determine search ranking; its value lies in memorability, targeted messaging, and how well it fits the organization’s identity and marketing strategy.

Download and filter .IST domains with the API

Download the latest .IST domain list with your API token, then stream the compressed file through Python to find matching domain names. This example searches for cloud; replace the term to fit your research.

Requires curl, Python 3, and an API token with download access. Set ALLZF_API_TOKEN in your environment; plan limits apply.

Read the API documentation
# Download the latest .IST domain list
curl --fail --location \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ALLZF_API_TOKEN}" \
  -o ist.txt.gz \

# Stream the file without loading it all into memory
python3 - <<'PY'
import gzip

    for line in domains:
        domain = line.strip()

Coverage and methodology for .IST data

Complete zone-file coverage. The .IST registry publishes its zone file through ICANN's Centralized Zone Data Service (CZDS). AllZonefiles.io downloads the complete .IST zone file every day and extracts every domain name in it. Registered domains absent from the zone file, such as domains without nameservers or on hold, are not included, and presence in the zone does not confirm a working website.

Monthly totals. Each month's total is the domain count on the last available day of that month; the current month shows the latest snapshot.

New and expired domains. Each day's zone file is compared with the previous snapshot: names that appear are counted as new, names that disappear as removed. Monthly figures are sums of these daily counts, so a domain that leaves the zone and returns is counted again. The first month of data and the current month are partial and marked in the tables.

Freshness. The daily update target is 9 AM UTC. Use each file's snapshot date when scheduling imports or comparing archives; delivery can be affected by source delays.

For reproducible analysis, record the zone, snapshot date, downloaded filename, and filtering rules. Usage is subject to our dataset license; enterprise and redistribution licensing is available separately.

.IST domain questions

How many .IST domains are there?

The .IST zone file dated 17 Oct 2026 contains 7,807 domain names. Registered domains without nameservers or on hold are not in the zone file, so the number of registrations can be slightly higher. Monthly totals since June 2025 are in the monthly table.

Is the .IST zone growing?

In the 12 months to 17 Oct 2026, the .IST zone grew: a net change of +367 domains. Over the last 30 days the net change was +72.

How many new .IST domains are registered each day?

In the 30 days to 17 Oct 2026, 175 new domains were added to the .IST zone file, about 5 per day. In the last 12 months, 1,926 new domains appeared. Monthly figures are in the new domains table.

How many .IST domains expire each month?

In the 30 days to 17 Oct 2026, 103 domains were removed from the .IST zone file, about 3 per day. Most are expired or deleted registrations. Each month's count is in the expired domains table.

Is this a complete .IST domain list?

Yes, for domains in the zone file. The list contains every domain name in the complete .IST zone file published through ICANN CZDS. It does not include registered domains absent from the zone file, and presence in the zone does not confirm a working website.

How do I download the .IST domain list?

Sign in with an account that has download access and use the download button above, or automate the download with the API example. Check plans and download limits before subscribing.

Can I download historical .IST domain lists?

Yes. Available dates appear in the historical domain list table. Archive coverage varies, and downloads require historical access. See historical datasets for details.

Are expired .IST domains available to register?

Not necessarily. A domain removed from the zone file may be in a redemption or pending-delete period, or on hold, and can return. Check current registry or registrar information before trying to register a name.

When is the .IST data updated?

All datasets have a daily update target of 9:00 AM UTC. The latest .IST snapshot is dated 17 Oct 2026; check the snapshot date because source delays can affect individual files.
