Why choose a .ax domain?

.ax is the country-code domain for the Åland Islands, managed by the Government of Åland. Registration is open worldwide, so you can choose it for a local connection or simply because it fits your name.

For a business on the islands, .ax gives your address a sense of place. For an independent brand, a portfolio or a new project, its two-letter ending can keep the focus on your name. Pair your website with an email address such as hello@yourname.ax.

A few things to know

Do I need to live in the Åland Islands?

No. Individuals, businesses and associations can register a .ax domain from anywhere. A local address or presence on the islands is not required.

How do I register a .ax domain?

Search for your preferred name above, choose an available registration period and complete your order. Use the actual domain holder's details and choose a name that respects existing protected names and trademarks.

Are .ax registrations and nameserver changes instant?

No. The .ax registry uses manual forms instead of an automated registration and management API. Registrations, nameserver changes and similar requests therefore require manual processing. We handle these requests as quickly as possible, but they are not completed instantly as they can be with many other domain extensions.

Can I use letters such as å, ä and ö?

Yes. .ax supports these and other national characters permitted by the registry. Names must have 2–63 characters before .ax; letters a–z, numbers and internal hyphens are also allowed. Enter your preferred spelling above to check availability.

Which registration periods are available?

ISTanCo currently offers .ax registration for 1, 3 or 5 years. Open the pricing table above to compare total registration and renewal prices for each period.

Can I transfer an existing .ax domain?

Yes. Ask your current registrar for the registrar transfer key, then use the domain transfer form. Moving to a new registrar is separate from changing the domain holder. Contact us if you need help.

Does a domain include website or email hosting?

A domain is your address on the internet. Website and email hosting are separate services that you can connect to it. Contact us if you need help choosing a service.
