.run registration
.run is open to individuals, businesses, organizations, and projects without eligibility conditions. Its action-oriented wording suits running communities, races, fitness services, software execution tools, campaigns, and projects built around movement or delivery. Available names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. A .run domain label may contain between 1 and 63 characters. The extension also supports selected internationalized characters from Latin, French, and Spanish sets, including accents and characters such as æ, œ, ñ, and ß. This allows brands and names to retain familiar local spelling where supported. To register, search for the name through host.yt and submit the order while it remains available. Moving an existing .run domain requires you to remove the registrar lock or other transfer protection and request the authorization code from the current registrar. Transfers can take several days and add one year to the domain’s existing expiration date. A holder change uses email authentication for both the current and incoming holders. Each party must complete the requested validation within five days, or the request is cancelled. The holder change itself does not alter the domain’s expiration date. .run also supports DNSSEC, WHOIS privacy preferences, renewals, restoration, DNS management, and web or email forwarding operations.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .run extension mean?
run uses the familiar English word associated with movement, operation, execution, and active progress. It can signal anything from athletics and races to software commands, product launches, delivery services, or time-limited campaigns. The meaning is flexible rather than tied to a country, profession, or regulated sector.
Who can register a .run domain?
Anyone can register an available .run domain. There are no eligibility conditions limiting registration to a particular country, organization type, profession, or industry. Names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so completing registration is important when the name you want is still available.
Are there registration restrictions or required documents for .run?
run registration does not require proof of residence, business status, professional credentials, or another eligibility document. The chosen domain label must contain between 1 and 63 characters and remain available at the time of registration. Selected accented Latin, French, Spanish, and additional characters are supported.
Is .run a good choice, and what projects suit it?
run is a clear fit for races, running clubs, coaches, fitness products, event pages, software tools, automation services, launch campaigns, and projects centered on action. It works best when the word reinforces the project’s purpose and helps visitors understand its theme before opening the site.
When does .run make more sense than .com?
run makes more sense when action, running, execution, or movement is central to the project and the extension completes a memorable name. .com offers broader familiarity and a neutral business identity, while .run provides stronger thematic meaning. Choose .com for general positioning and .run for a focused, action-led identity.
How quickly is a .run domain registered, and how long does it last?
Registration starts after you submit an available name through host.yt and the registry processes the request on a first-come, first-served basis. The domain remains registered for the period selected and confirmed in your order. Renew it before its expiration date to maintain control and avoid interruption.
How do I transfer a .run domain to host.yt?
First disable the transfer lock or other transfer protection at your current registrar, then obtain the domain’s authorization code. Submit that code with your transfer request to host.yt. Completion may take several days. Once finalized, the transfer adds one year to the domain’s current expiration date.
