About .app

A .app domain is a generic top-level domain run by Charleston Road Registry Inc. It is aimed at the mobile and web app industries, and app developers and publishers are the people it is built for.

A .app domain is a good choice if you are launching an app, a web service or a product that needs a secure site by default. Before you register, check that your name fits the 1 to 63 character limit and that you are happy to run your site over HTTPS.

Who can register .app

Registration is open to anyone, anywhere in the world.

  • Anyone worldwide may register a .app domain, with no local presence required.
  • Your contact details must be accurate and kept up to date.
  • Your site must be set up with a valid HTTPS configuration, or it will not load in major browsers.
Renewing .app

Renewals are charged in one-year increments, and you should renew before the expiry date to keep your name.

  • There is no separate redemption period.
  • Renewals add one year at a time.
Transferring .app

You can transfer an existing .app domain to Domain Central from another provider, provided the domain is eligible.

  • You need the authorisation (EPP) code from your current registrar, and the domain must be unlocked.
  • Transfers usually take 5 to 7 days, and the losing registrar has up to 5 days to respond.
  • A domain cannot be transferred within 60 days of registration or of a previous transfer.
  • A successful transfer adds one year to the registration term.
Typical transfer time
5 to 7 days
Changing the owner of .app

You can change the registrant of your .app domain through Domain Central.

  • The change is made through the registrar and does not alter the expiry date.
  • Your new registrant details must be accurate and kept current.
