.DE is the official country code top-level domain (ccTLD) of Germany. It is one of the most important Internet extensions, with over 16 million registrations, making it the world’s most popular country domain. .DE domains have no residency requirements and can be registered by any person or company regardless of country of residence. However, designation of an administrative contact residing in Germany is required within two weeks of registration. Management is handled by DENIC, and registration, transfer and renewal are done in real time with full DNSSEC and IDN support. Registering or transferring your .DE domain through Domain Market ensures fast registration and reliable technical support.

.de is a domain extension (TLD) you can use to give your brand a more targeted identity. It works normally for websites, email and redirects, like any modern domain.

Who can register .de domains?

In most cases registration is open to everyone. If the registry has specific rules, they apply to all registrars and we follow them in the process.

How much does registration/renewal/transfer cost?

+
Prices are shown separately in the page table. If a name is designated Premium by the registry, it may have different pricing from standard.

Can I renew after expiry?

Yes, there is usually a grace period for renewal. Duration and any restoration fees are set by the registry, so the safest approach is to renew on time.

DNSSEC (DS records) can be enabled where supported by the TLD/registry. Contact data protection also depends on registry rules and service availability.
