When should you choose .org?
.org is often associated with organisations, social initiatives and communities. The extension does not itself establish legal status or prove that an organisation is a nonprofit.
A practical example
An educational community can present its mission, organisers and contact details under .org. Transparent information helps visitors understand who runs the project.
Before you register
If you accept contributions or collect personal data, explain how your organisation works and how those data are used. Trust depends on verifiable information, not just a domain name.
Before confirming registration
A search does not reserve a name. Check spelling, registrant details and the registration period. Registration is confirmed when the provider completes the operation. Read the terms of service y el privacy notice.
If you already own the domain, review how to prepare a transfer. For help choosing a name, read our practical guide.
