Irish Domain Name Registration

Company Bureau can assist you to register an Irish domain name for your business. Registering a .ie domain name arguably is the most effective way to target the Irish market. Registering a domain name is the first step to building a website and setting up professional email addresses. This is an essential way to show customers that your business has a presence in Ireland and it gives added protection to your company name. Please note that Irish companies who are trading worldwide customers may elect to use a .com domain name.

Relaxed Rules for Irish Domain Name Regulation

Previously, individuals were only able to register a .ie domain once they provided proof that they had incorporated a limited company or set up as a sole trader. Ireland’s Domain Registry has recently relaxed these rules so Ireland’s small offices, home offices, and micro-businesses can get a .ie domain faster and easier. As of March 2018, businesses and individuals no longer need to show a ‘claim to the name’ when registering a new .ie domain. The previous restriction on domains that reflect a person’s name, nickname or pen has also been removed. However, upon registration individuals and businesses will still need to provide their identity and proof of their connection to Ireland.
