Features & Requirements

- DNSSEC supported
Conditions
There are no major restrictions for registering a .CO.UK domain - it’s open to individuals and businesses worldwide. However, the .CO.UK registry offers limited WHOIS privacy. If you register as an individual, your personal details (like your name and address) can be hidden from the public WHOIS database — but this protection doesn’t apply to businesses. This privacy feature is managed by Nominet (the official .UK registry) and helps protect personal data while complying with UK domain rules. | |
| Please note: The .CO.UK registry supports the registry-level WHOIS privacy solution which means individuals can hide their details in the WHOIS database. |
