Can I pre-register for a .eu domain name?
Pre-registration of .eu domain names is not possible in the .eu Top Level Domain.
Names cannot be registered until the Registry is in operation (cf. answer under "When...?"). Applications will then need to be made through registrars who have been formally accredited by the .eu Registry.
The Commission is aware however that some companies are offering to "pre-register" or "reserve" domain names, essentially by offering to make an application for the registration of a domain name to registrars as soon as the registration process is formally initiated.
Given the risks for confusion "pre-registration" services are not recommended by the Commission. In any case consumers and companies are encouraged to check exactly what is and what is not being offered.
