Restrictions

Open to the public, with some restrictions:

  • You must reside in Germany or have an administrative contact (physical person) who resides in Germany and has an address other than a P.O. box.

  • During registration, the DNS (A, MX, and CNAME) of the domain name must be correctly configured so that it can pass the registry's zone check. Three servers of two different C classes are required.

  • If you're using a DNS service other than Route 53, the name servers for the domain must pass a check to ensure that they're correctly configured. To determine whether the name servers for your domain will pass the check, see https://www.denic.de/en/service/tools/nast/.
