Registration of .EU Domain Names

The European Union (EU) have announced that a new domian name .EU will become available later this year.

Who can I be kept informed of the .EU Domain Name

Subscribe the Professional Registry newsletter - we'll keep you informed!

Pre-registration of .eu domain names is not possible in the .eu Top Level Domain.

Essentially, any individual resident in the EU or any organisation or company established in the EU will be able to register a name under the .eu TLD.

Certain restrictions will be enforced to avoid abusive or speculative registrations. In particular the registry will put in place an initial phased introduction of names in order to ensure appropriate temporary opportunities for the holders of certain prior rights. Public bodies will also have the opportunity to register their names in advance of the general public.

The European Commission has made this statement:

We STRONGLY recommend that you have a EU trade-mark if you do not have one already.  Contact your Trade-Mark attorney urgently to secure your intellectual property across Europe. 

NB An alternative domain name .EU.com is available here
