.co.uk
A country-code extension in our united kingdom group, run by Nominet. £10.99 for the first year, £10.99 a year to keep, £109.90 over ten years — transfers in cost £0.00.
The renewal is close to the first-year price, so a short term costs you nothing in the long run.
.co.uk facts
Britain’s everyday extension, run by Nominet since the eighties and still the most-registered ccTLD in the UK. No local presence is required, though most holders are UK businesses.
Why people choose it
It signals a British business instantly — useful for local search and for customers who want to know where you are. Renewals are among the cheapest of any extension.
Typical uses
High-street shops, trades, agencies, clubs and any UK-facing service where trust is local.

.co.uk questions, answered
Who can register a .co.uk domain?
Anyone, anywhere. The registry places no restrictions on who may hold one.
What does .co.uk cost to keep?
First year £10.99, renewals £10.99 a year, and £109.90 for ten years in total. The flat renewal means a one-year term costs you nothing extra over time.
Can I move a .co.uk domain to URSY later?
Yes. A transfer costs £0.00 and, where the registry allows it, adds a year to the expiry date. Your DNS records travel with the domain so nothing goes offline.
Does .co.uk support international characters?
Yes — accented and non-Latin names are supported. Type the name as you write it and our converter shows the punycode form the registry stores.
Is WHOIS privacy included?
Yes, free for as long as you hold the domain, on every extension that permits it. Your name and address are replaced by a privacy contact in the public record.
