.es domains<\/p>

A person or organisation with interests or links to Spain may apply for a .es domain<\/h2>

The Spanish registry, Red.es, manages .es domains. Most available .es names are assigned automatically, but accurate registrant details are required and reserved terms have additional restrictions.<\/p>

Who can register a .es domain?<\/h2>

Official registry guidance says anyone with interests or links to Spain can apply from anywhere in the world. The application must use accurate details for the real registrant. The registry can request evidence and inaccurate data may place the registration at risk.<\/p>

Normally assigned automatically<\/h3>

.es, .com.es, .nom.es and .org.es names can be available under their respective eligibility and naming rules.<\/p><\/article>

Restricted extensions<\/h3>

.gob.es and .edu.es require prior verification and are reserved for qualifying public, education or research bodies.<\/p><\/article><\/div>

Registrant identity<\/h3>

Enter the legal name and the correct identity or tax identifier requested for the registrant type.<\/p><\/article>
