When can we expect to have the European Top Level Domain .eu?
Can DENIC register Domains, that do not end in .de?
No, we are only responsible for DE-domains. If you want to register a domain below COM, NET or ORG, then you can mandate
one of the members of CORE.
If you are interested in the new gTLDs (generic Top Level Domains), then please visit our gTLD page.
If you want to register a domain below another ccTLD (country code Top Level Domain) than .de, please contact the appropriate NIC or a provider.

When can we expect to have the European Top Level Domain .eu?
The European Commission has decided to support the establishment of a new top level domain .eu in order
to promote e-commerce in Europe. At the moment the appropriate panels are still in the process of evaluation. End
users will not be able to register .eu domains before at least summer 2001.
There is more information available on the Website of the European
Commission and there is a working draft. Meanwhile there is
also a Communication from
the Commission to the European Parliament and the Council.
