.ee registration
.ee is Estonia’s country-code domain extension. It suits Estonian businesses, public-facing services, local communities and international projects that want a clear connection with Estonia. Individuals and legal entities from any country may register, but the registry requires identifying information for the domain holder. Individuals must provide an identification number, such as a passport or national identity card number. Legal entities must provide their official registration number. The administrative contact must also sign an application. Electronic signatures are accepted from holders of Estonian, Belgian, Lithuanian or Finnish ID cards; otherwise, a handwritten signature can be submitted in a PDF document. If you prefer not to act as the administrative contact or complete the signing procedure yourself, host.yt can provide a local contact service. Domain labels may contain between 2 and 63 characters. In addition to standard Latin letters, .ee supports the characters õ, ä, ö, ü, š and ž. To transfer a .ee domain, first remove any transfer lock or protection at the current registrar and obtain the authorization code. Manual processing means a transfer can take several days, but it does not change the domain’s expiration date. Ownership changes also require the current holder to sign an update request form.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .ee domain extension stand for?
ee is the country-code domain extension assigned to Estonia. It gives a website an immediate Estonian identity and is commonly relevant to businesses, organizations, services and individuals operating in Estonia or addressing people who associate the project with the country.
Who can register an .ee domain?
Individuals and legal entities from any country can register an .ee domain. The registrant must provide appropriate identification details, and an administrative contact must complete the required application procedure. A host.yt local contact service is available when the registrant does not want to serve as the administrative contact.
Are there restrictions or required documents for registering .ee?
Yes. Individuals must submit an identity number, such as a passport or ID card number, while legal entities must provide their registration number. The administrative contact must sign an application electronically with an accepted national ID card or by hand and return it as a PDF.
Is .ee a good choice, and what kinds of projects suit it?
ee is a practical choice for businesses serving Estonia, locally focused online shops, community projects, cultural initiatives and services with an Estonian audience. It can also support an international brand that has a genuine Estonian operation and wants that connection to be immediately visible.
When does .ee make more sense than .com?
ee makes more sense when an Estonian identity or local audience is central to the project, because the extension communicates that geographic connection directly. .com is better suited to a broadly international brand without a country focus. The trade-off is local relevance versus wider geographic neutrality.
How long does .ee registration take, and how long does it last?
Registration proceeds after the required holder details and signed administrative-contact application have been received and accepted. Processing time can therefore depend on how quickly the documents are completed. Your host.yt order confirmation will show the applicable registration term, expiration date and renewal information for the domain.
How do I transfer an .ee domain to host.yt?
Disable the transfer lock or other transfer protection at your current registrar, then request the domain’s authorization code. Submit that code with your transfer order to host.yt. The process may take several days because some steps are handled manually, and the existing expiration date remains unchanged.
