Registration Requirements
See our TLD Chart for all registration requirements.
General Requirements
The registry has two minimum requirements of eligibility to activate a domain:
- Registrant must pledge to show commitment to the purpose and principles of .ECO:
“I/we pledge to support positive change for the planet and to be honest when sharing information on environmental actions.” - Affirm eligibility by sharing eco actions and commitments in a publicly accessible profile.
In line with .ECO purpose and principles, all .ECO domain names are registered with server hold status until the registrant affirms eligibility. These minimum requirements apply to all .ECO domain names.
Once the order is submitted, the registry contacts the registrant by email, inviting them to complete an Eco Profile affirming their or the user's eligibility.
