Claim HostingerOVERVIEW
Hostinger is an ICANN-accredited domain registrar, IANA registrar ID 1636, based in Lithuania, operating since 2004 (Vilnius). Accreditation means it is authorised to register domains directly in gTLD registries rather than reselling through another registrar.
The accreditation is held through the legal entity HOSTINGER operations, UAB, which is how the company appears in ICANN and RDAP records.
This profile is unclaimed, so everything shown is drawn from the IANA registry and public records rather than from the company itself. The Disclosure section below tracks 17 owner facts, from .com renewal price to transfer-out fees, each marked Not disclosed until the registrar verifies and answers.
Other accredited registrars based in Lithuania: Kaunas University of Technology.

0 of 17 owner facts disclosed
Hostinger does not have a published DRI yet. Scores only publish once a profile clears the evidence floor, so no registrar gets a number HostList cannot stand behind. Still needed:

- Disclose at least 4 facts (0/4 so far)
- Link a review presence (25+ Trustpilot or 10+ G2 reviews)
Four equal-weight components, 25 points each. Built from verified ownership, third-party reviews, disclosure coverage, and data recency. No paid influence.

Does Hostinger include a free domain?
Most Hostinger annual hosting plans include a free domain for the first year. Renewal pricing for the domain applies separately after the promotional period.
HostList ranks registrars and hosts by HRI and profile completeness, not by advertising spend. HostList does not run affiliate links; outbound links go to the provider’s own site. Labeled sponsor banners, when offered, never change HRI, directory order, or spotlight selection. ICANN accreditation data is sourced from official IANA and ICANN directories.
