Domain Extension Special Conditions

Every domain extension is governed by its registry operator in addition to our Domain Registration Agreement. This document summarises the namespaces we currently offer and highlights extension-specific conditions you must accept at registration.

General rule

When you register an extension through us, you agree to the Domain Registration Agreement, our Terms and Conditions of Service, and the then-current policies of the registry operator for that extension. Where registry terms are updated, continued use of the domain constitutes acceptance unless you transfer away or allow the domain to lapse.

UK namespaces

.uk, .co.uk, .org.uk and related UK extensions are operated under Nominet (opens in a new tab) policies, including the Nominet Terms and Conditions of Domain Name Registration (opens in a new tab). Registrants must meet UK presence or use requirements where applicable and must keep registrant data accurate.

Generic and specialty extensions

Global extensions such as .com and .org, and specialty namespaces such as .dev or .shop, may have additional eligibility, DNSSEC, HTTPS or launch-phase rules published by their registry. Premium or collision names may carry non-standard pricing shown at search or checkout.

For sunrise or trademark-claim phases, see our Trademark Clearinghouse Service Schedule where that service is offered.
