Gandi

Domain registrar from France

FranceEU Ownership reviewed, controller unresolved

Scope verdict

Ownership reviewed, controller unresolved

This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.

How we classify services

Gandi is a domain name registrar from France with a large selection of top level domains, and it offers other services such as hosting and email around them. Accounts support two factor authentication, and organisation accounts give several users access to the same domains.

Gandi is a French company, so it is a European alternative to the American registrars and keeps the registrar relationship inside the EU. It suits businesses and agencies that manage domains as a team rather than from one personal login.

Pricing

A .com domain costs 19.99 EUR to renew. All prices include VAT, so for most European businesses the effective price is about 20 percent lower.
