A country-code extension in our europe group, run by EURid. £8.99 for the first year, £8.99 a year to keep, £89.90 over ten years — transfers in cost £8.99.
The renewal is close to the first-year price, so a short term costs you nothing in the long run.
.eu facts
The .eu extension is a country-code extension operated by EURid, in the root since 2006. Registration is £8.99 for the first year and £8.99 a year after that, which comes to £89.90 if you hold it for a decade. It carries an eligibility requirement: resident or entity in the eu, iceland, liechtenstein or norway.
Why people choose it
It reads clearly, ordinary words are still findable, and the renewal is printed beside the intro price rather than buried in the terms. Pricing stays level year to year, so a short term costs you nothing over time.
Typical uses
Businesses trading in that country, plus anyone who wants a short, local-sounding name.

.eu questions, answered
Who can register a .eu domain?
This extension has an eligibility requirement: Resident or entity in the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway. We check eligibility before taking payment, so nothing is charged for a registration that cannot complete.
What does .eu cost to keep?
First year £8.99, renewals £8.99 a year, and £89.90 for ten years in total. The flat renewal means a one-year term costs you nothing extra over time.
Can I move a .eu domain to URSY later?
Yes. A transfer costs £8.99 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 .eu 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.
