  If you want to use a domain URL that purchased elsewhere to map to from your wordpress.com site, you have to register a plan and purchase a domain mapping upgrade http://support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/ that is annually renewable.

  You require and underlying .wordpress.com site to domain map from to your domain URL. WordPress.com does not accept incoming domain transfers but mapping an existing domain is possible. See: Map an existing domain (one you already own) to your WordPress.com blog – if you already have a domain that you registered and purchased elsewhere.
