.work registration
.work is an open domain extension for professionals, tradespeople, recruiters, project teams, coworking spaces, and organizations presenting employment or services online. Anyone may register a .work name without meeting eligibility conditions or submitting proof of professional status. Available names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, and labels may contain between 2 and 63 characters. A .work address can clearly connect a website with a profession, workplace, vacancy portal, portfolio, or practical service. Internationalized names are supported with selected accented characters used in German, Spanish, and French, including characters such as ä, ñ, é, ç, and œ. This allows businesses and professionals to use familiar local spelling where supported. To transfer an existing .work domain to host.yt, remove the transfer lock or other transfer protection at your current registrar and request the authorization code. Submit that code with the transfer order. Completion can take several days, and a successful transfer adds one year to the domain’s existing expiry date. Changing the domain holder follows a separate authentication process: approval messages are sent to both the current and future holders, and the request is cancelled if it is not completed within five days. A holder change does not alter the domain’s expiration date.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .work extension mean?
work signals a connection with employment, professional services, trades, projects, or the workplace. It can give visitors immediate context before they open the site, making it suitable for portfolios, job platforms, service businesses, team spaces, professional communities, and other work-related websites.
Who can register a .work domain?
Anyone can register a .work domain. The registry does not limit eligibility by country, profession, organization type, or commercial status. Names are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, so a registration can proceed when the requested name is available and meets the technical requirements.
Are there registration restrictions or required documents for .work?
There are no eligibility conditions or supporting documents required to register a .work domain. The chosen label must contain between 2 and 63 characters. Selected accented German, Spanish, and French characters are also supported, allowing compatible internationalized domain names to use local spelling.
Is .work a good choice, and what projects suit it?
work is a practical choice when the domain should immediately communicate a professional or employment-related purpose. It fits freelancer portfolios, recruitment services, job boards, trade businesses, coworking communities, internal project portals, and campaign sites focused on careers, skills, services, or workplace initiatives.
When does .work make more sense than .com?
work makes more sense when professional activity is central to the site and a descriptive address helps set expectations. .com is broader and often more familiar, but it does not communicate a specific purpose. Choose .work for clarity; choose .com when the brand may expand well beyond professional services or employment.
How quickly is a .work domain registered, and how long does it last?
A .work registration begins after the order is submitted successfully and the registry accepts the available name. The applicable registration term and exact expiry date are displayed during purchase and in your host.yt account. Renew the domain before that date to keep the registration active.
How do I transfer a .work domain to host.yt?
Disable the registrar lock or other transfer protection with your current provider, obtain the domain’s authorization code, and submit it with your host.yt transfer order. The process may take several days. Once completed, one year is added to the domain’s current expiration date.
