Before you register a .new domain

  • .new is a secure namespace, meaning that HTTPS is required for all .new websites. This is enforced by the HSTS preload list. You can register your .new domain name now, but in order for it to work properly in browsers you must first configure an SSL certificate on it.
  • .new is a restricted domain space in which all domains must be used for action generation or online content creation flows. Domain names that do not comply with this requirement may be placed on server hold or deleted for non-compliance. .new domains must be active within 100 days from the registration date. View full registration policies on the registry's website.
