European domain name registrars

A domain name registrar reserves internet domain names on your behalf and keeps the registration with the relevant registry. Through the registrar you set name servers, manage renewals, handle transfers and control the contact details attached to the domain. Most also offer DNS hosting, WHOIS privacy where the registry allows it, and bulk management for people holding many names.

Your domain is the one asset every other service hangs from, so losing access to the registrar account is worse than losing a server. netim, Infomaniak Domains and OVHcloud Domains are European registrars listed here. Working with a European domain registrar means your registrant data and your dispute route stay under EU law, and support speaks to you in a European time zone.
