    Summary: Let \(D\) be a finite simple directed graph with vertex set \(V(D)\) and arc set \(A(D)\). A subset \(S\) of the vertex set \(V(D)\) is a \textit{\(k\)-dominating} set (\(k \geq 1\)) of \(D\) if for each vertex \(v\) not in \(S\) there exists \(k\) vertices \(u_i,\dots , u_k \subseteq S\) such that \((u_i, v)\) is an arc of \(D\) for \(i = 1,\dots , k\). The \(k\)-domination number of \(D, k(D)\), is the cardinality of the smallest \(k\)-dominating set of \(D\). The \(k\)-domination number (\(k \geq 2\)) of the Cartesian products of two directed cycles, two directed paths and Cartesian products of a directed path and a cycle are determined. Also, we give \(k\)-domination number (\(k \geq 2\)) of the direct product of two directed cycles and two directed paths.
