Frequently asked questions about .nrw

What is .nrw?

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

Who can register a .nrw domain?

+
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 table on this page. If a name is designated Premium by the registry, it may have different pricing than standard.

Can I renew after expiry?

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

Can I transfer .nrw to DomainMarket?

+
Yes. You will typically need the Auth/EPP code from your current registrar. The transfer usually completes within a few days, depending on the registry.

Does it support DNSSEC and Whois Privacy?

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

Can I use it with email and hosting?

Yes. We provide free DNS management and you can point the domain to Email Hosting or Web Hosting at DomainMarket or any provider via nameservers or DNS records.
