Requirements .ad

With the upcoming release of the .ad extension (Andorra's TLD), Entorno Digital is accredited and ready to offer you the best registration options. Previously, it was necessary to have a registered trademark in Andorra to obtain a .ad domain. Now, starting from September 5th, the phase begins for registering .ad domains, both for trademark holders from any jurisdiction and for the Landrush phase (the latter is open and without prior requirements).

- Launch phase duration: From September 5th to October 16th.

Following this, the open phase will begin on October 22nd, where anyone can request an available .ad domain without any prerequisites.

We have set up a pre-registration system so that you can easily request domains through the client area. Requests will be stored and launched automatically at the moment of the opening.

Protect your names and products under the .ad domain with our pre-registration system.
