Is .cymru right for your idea?
Consider .wales alongside .cymru
The two endings express a related identity in different languages. One may be enough for your project; if you register both, you can direct visitors to one main site rather than maintaining duplicate content.
Check the spelling supported by this search
This search handles plain Latin-letter domain names. If your intended Welsh spelling includes accented characters, ask us about support before choosing a different spelling or assuming the accented version can be ordered here.

Questions about .cymru domains
Is .cymru separate from .wales?
Yes. Each address is checked and registered separately. Buying one does not automatically include the other.
Is .cymru only for websites physically hosted in Wales?
The address expresses identity rather than the server’s location. Hosting and domain registration are separate choices.
Can I run a bilingual site?
Yes. Plan clear language navigation and keep important information consistent across the language versions.
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.
