Microsoft domain name

Overview

When ordering your first subscription to Microsoft products, you need to choose a unique domain name. You can either use a new domain provided by Microsoft or specify your existing one.

Examples of domains that can be used to order a subscription:

• With a subdomain: example.onmicrosoft.com
• Without a subdomain: example.com

New domains are always created in Microsoft with the .onmicrosoft.com subdomain. Your existing domain can either include the .onmicrosoft.com subdomain or not.

The platform will automatically use the selected domain for subsequent subscriptions. It will also be used when creating users for the subscription (for example, yourname@example.onmicrosoft.com).

New domain

If you chose to create a new domain, on step ➂ Additional information:

1. Enable the option New Microsoft Tenant Name. The option With Subdomain .onmicrosoft.com will be enabled automatically.
2. In the Domain name field, enter the domain name without a dot that will be added to .onmicrosoft.com. Use only Latin letters and numbers.
