Frequently asked questions
Who can register a .ie domain?
Anyone with a real connection to Ireland — a registered business, CRO-registered company, trade mark, or personal connection such as Irish citizenship or residency. Your registrar submits the supporting evidence to the .ie registry as part of registration.
Why are renewal prices different from registration prices?
Registrars often discount the first year to win customers, with the standard price applying at renewal. Always compare the renewal price — over a few years it matters more than the first-year offer.
