Who can register a .zuerich domain?

You can buy a .zuerich domain if you are:

  • A company or organization registered with the Commercial Register of the Canton of Zurich and with an administrative office in the Canton of Zurich.
  • A public-law entity or organization with an administrative office in the Canton of Zurich.
  • An association, competence center, or similar organization with an administrative office in the Canton of Zurich, without registration, but working mainly and during a long period for a public-law entity in the Canton of Zurich. (Confirmation required).

Registering a .zuerich domain brings several advantages to your company. To begin with, it makes for short, smart, and powerful domain names. Next, linking your domain name to the image of Switzerland’s largest city city, and the most successful economic area in Switzerland, serves to not only strengthen your company’s online image, an official domain like this also improves your customers’ or potential customers’ trust in your business.

Please remember that in the Sunrise phase, it is only possible for those who hold trademarks registered with ICANN’s Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) to register .zuerich domain names (you can still pre-order domains for later release phases now), so now is the best time to get a .zuerich domain to secure your company’s online brand.
