About the .NO domain
What is the .NO domain?
Registration requires a genuine connection to Norway: individuals must have a Norwegian postal address, a national identity number (PID) obtained through registration in the National Registry, genuinely reside in the country, and be 18 or older; they can register a maximum of 5 .no domains each. Companies need a Norwegian postal address and must be registered with an organization number at the Brønnøysund Register Centre, with a limit of 100 domains per entity. Those who do not meet these requirements — including Norwegians who move abroad, who cannot register new domains while residing outside the country — can use trustee services based in Norway, though these trustees technically become the domain's legal owners.
