This service allows the merchant to reserve the local domain name for the eCommerce platforms (eStores and eMarketplaces) through Mall.bh

Mall.bh was launched in April 2020 and it includes licensed eStores in the Kingdom of Bahrain, and it is one of the initiatives included in the eCommerce National Strategy, which was launched by the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Tourism to enhance the eCommerce ecosystem. Mall.bh allows the merchants to showcase their eStores or connect with eCommerce services providers.

The reservation of the local domain name (.bh) for eCommerce platforms through mall.bh is a service added to the current services provided by mall.bh. This service will boost the local domain name (.bh).
