these very differently from the parent.

Check whether a .nl name is free
We do not hold live availability. This opens Porkbun's own search for your name under .nl in a new tab, so the answer comes from a registrar rather than from us.

.nl frequently asked questions
01How much does a .nl domain cost?
The cheapest first year we found is $5.40 at Squarespace. Renewal matters more: the cheapest renewal is $5.42 at cloudean, so five years costs $26.86.
02Does .nl get more expensive after the first year?
Renewal is 0% above the first year, so what you see at sign-up is close to what you keep paying.
03Who runs the .nl registry?
The IANA root database records the sponsoring organisation for .nl. Registrars sell .nl names on the registry's behalf; the registry sets the wholesale price.
04Is anyone allowed to register a .nl domain?
We have no record of an eligibility restriction on .nl. Registries can change policy, so confirm at the registrar before buying.
