Irish Domain Guidelines

General Irish Domain Name Requirements

For Completecents Irish Domain Registry Application, form to print and fax, click here.

In order to proceed with the registration of a .ie requested domain name, the Irish Domain Registrar shall firstly require clarification as to the exact legal status of the applicant. If the domain name is a direct permutation of your limited company name (and the organisation has been incorporated for more than 6 weeks), please simply confirm your company registration number.

If this is not the case, a supporting fax on your company letterhead outlining the exact nature of the application will be required. If you do not have a registered business name or limited company, a detailed fax outlining your reasons for applying for the domain name and a brief description of your intentions for the site will be required. For more detailed information please read the following information.

IMPORTANT NOTE: All applicants applying for a .ie domain name who are not situated in the 32 counties, must demonstrate a Real and Substantive Connection with Ireland (with the exception of those applying with a registered Community Trademark).

Examples of acceptable documentation demonstrating substantial trade or commercial activity within Ireland are as follows:

  • Copies of invoices (showing trade to or from Ireland)
  • High-quality brochures
  • A signed letter on headed paper from a bank manager, firm of chartered accountant(s), registered auditor(s), tax consultant(s) (where the tax advisor identification number is displayed), or solicitor(s) confirming the applicants trade with Ireland.
