  1. 1

    Search for the name

    Go to our domain registration page and type the name you’d like, e.g. murphysbakery.

  2. 2

    Choose the extension

    Pick the extension (.ie, .com, .eu…) from the results and add it to the basket.

  3. 3

    Check out

    Sign in to your Client Area account (or create one) and complete the order.

  4. 4

    For .ie domains: send one document

    The .ie registry needs proof of your connection to Ireland, for example a CRO number for a company or an Irish passport for a person. Read our full guide: How to register a .ie domain.

  5. 5

    Wait for activation

    Most domains are active within minutes. A .ie is usually validated within three hours on working days.

Good to know
  • Register the matching .com too, so nobody else can use your name.
