Who can register .space, and what are the rules?
.space is classified as a generic top-level domain. Availability, premium-name pricing and any registrar-specific checks are confirmed at checkout, so a public price should not be read as proof that a particular name can be registered.
Renewing, transferring and expiring a .space name
Registration, renewal and expiry handling depend on the registry policy and the buyer's registrar agreement. Confirm the renewal price, grace periods and restoration fee before relying on a name for a live service.
Is .space right for this project?
.space is most legible when the words on both sides of the dot form a clear identity for creative projects, communities and place-led brands. Compare the full renewal cost and the extension's 30-day direction, then test how the address sounds aloud before choosing it over a familiar alternative.
