.food registration
.food is an open domain extension for restaurants, cafés, bakeries, producers, recipe publishers, delivery services, culinary schools, reviewers, and community projects. Anyone may register without a special eligibility condition. Names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so availability at the time of registration determines who receives a name. A .food label may contain between 1 and 63 characters. A concise name can identify a venue, product, cuisine, guide, publication, or campaign directly in the address. Because the extension already provides culinary context, the second-level name can focus on the brand, specialty, location, or audience. To move an existing .food domain to host.yt, first turn off transfer protection at the current registrar and request the authorization code. Submit that code with the transfer order. The process may take several days, and once it completes, one year is added to the domain’s expiry date. A change of registrant uses an authentication process. Confirmation messages are sent to both the current holder and the incoming holder, and each party must validate the request. If the process is not completed within five days, the request is cancelled. A completed holder change does not alter the domain’s expiration date.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .food extension mean?
food is a descriptive generic domain extension that signals a direct connection to meals, ingredients, cooking, hospitality, or culinary culture. It does not stand for an acronym or identify a particular country, making its purpose easy to understand from the web address itself.
Who can register a .food domain?
Anyone can register a .food domain. The registry does not impose an eligibility condition based on location, profession, organization type, or connection to the culinary sector. Available names are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.
Are there restrictions or required documents for registering .food?
There are no special eligibility conditions or supporting documents required for a .food registration. The requested name must be available, and its label must contain between 1 and 63 characters. Allocation follows the first-come, first-served principle.
Is .food a good choice, and what projects suit it?
food is a practical choice when the project has a clear culinary focus. It suits restaurants, cafés, producers, recipe sites, delivery services, cooking schools, reviewers, events, and local dining guides because the extension communicates the subject before a visitor opens the website.
When does .food make more sense than .com?
food makes more sense when immediate culinary relevance matters more than having a broadly familiar address. A .com domain is more neutral and may suit a diversified company, while .food gives restaurants, recipes, products, and hospitality projects a clearer identity but narrows the perceived subject.
How long does .food registration take, and how long does it last?
food names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so registration depends on the name remaining available when the order is processed. The domain remains active for the term purchased through host.yt. A completed inbound transfer adds one year to its existing expiry date.
How do I transfer a .food domain to host.yt?
Disable transfer protection with your current registrar, obtain the domain’s authorization code, and submit it with your transfer order at host.yt. The transfer may take several days. After completion, one year is added to the current expiry date of the .food domain.
