Read the whole address aloud
The short ending can fit neatly after a brand name, but listeners may assume you said .com. Try saying the address to someone unfamiliar with the business before printing it on cards or signage.

Who can register?

Choose with confidence
Is .co right for your idea?
Keep email confusion in mind
A missing final letter can send visitors or email to a different domain. Check the corresponding .com and avoid a name that is easily confused with an established business. Availability does not establish trademark rights.
Separate the country origin from your own location
Using .co does not say where your business is based. Put your location, service area and contact details on the site when those details matter to customers.

About this extension
The story behind .co
- Domain family
- Colombian country-code domain
- Registry operator
- Colombia’s MinTIC (.CO registry)
IANA identifies Colombia’s Ministry of Information and Communications Technologies (MinTIC) as the .co manager and CentralNic as its technical contact. The country-code origin is separate from its worldwide registration audience. IANA: .co registry record (opens in a new tab)
A country code with a wider audience
The IANA record for .co dates from December 1991 and identifies Colombia’s Ministry of Information and Communications Technologies as its manager. The registry also offers direct .co registration internationally.

Questions about .co domains
Is .co the same as .co.uk?
No. They are independent domain spaces with different registries. Registering one does not register the other.
Do I need to live in Colombia?
No. The registry allows direct .co registrations worldwide.
Should I also check .com?
Yes, it is useful to see what occupies the easily confused address. You can then make an informed naming choice rather than assuming the names are interchangeable.
What happens after I find a domain?
Add one or more available names to your basket, then continue to registration. Enter the owner details and review the registration term and total before payment. Availability is provisional until the registrar confirms registration.
Will UKC charge me automatically at renewal?
No. UKC sends renewal reminders and an invoice. You need to pay the invoice to renew; UKC does not automatically charge you. Keep your contact details current so you receive reminders.
