.global domain names

An address for work that crosses borders.

A .global domain can introduce an organisation whose audience extends beyond one country. It leaves room for several markets while your website explains the places and people you actually serve.

Choose with confidence

Is .global right for your idea?

Be specific about your reach

List the markets, languages and time zones you support. A global address should not imply coverage that customers cannot actually access.

Make regional information easy to find

Separate shipping, service availability and local contacts by market where necessary. Keep the main brand consistent across those pages.

Plan multilingual navigation

Choose a domain people can type easily and provide clear language choices. A global ending does not automatically translate or localise a website.

Questions about .global domains

Does .global target a particular country?

No. It is a generic domain ending, suited to an international identity rather than one country's address.

Which .global registration periods can I choose?

Standard .global registrations are available for 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 years. Term prices are full upfront charges. Confirm your term and renewal price at order review.

Can I use .global with my existing website?

Yes, if your website provider supports a custom domain. Follow its DNS connection instructions. Registration and any paid website service are separate.

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.
