The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has asked all banks to commence the migration of their existing domains to the ‘.bank.in’ domain and complete the process at the earliest and in any case, not later than October 31.
Announced as a Statement on Developmental and Regulatory Policies on February 7, 2025, on “Enhancing Trust in the Financial Sector through ‘bank.in‘ and ‘fin.in‘ domains”, this initiative is aimed at strengthening the cybersecurity framework and enhancing public confidence in digital banking and payment systems.
Banks have been asked to contact Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technology (IDRBT) at sahyog@idrbt.ac.in to initiate the registration process. IDRBT will guide the banks on various aspects related to application process and migration to new domain.
