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

NordName is an ICANN accredited domain name registrar from Finland. It supports internationalised domain names, DNSSEC, registry lock to prevent unauthorised transfers, and brand protection features for companies that have to watch their names across many extensions. Web and email hosting are available as well.

The company is Finnish and hosted in the EU, which makes NordName a European alternative to the American registrars. Payment is possible by credit or debit card, EU online banking, PayPal and SEPA bank transfer. It fits businesses that manage a portfolio of domains and want them secured against hijacking.
