Using a .irish domain name is a great way to express your Irish identity online. It is often used by brands, cultural groups and the global Irish diaspora to show their Irish affiliation to their website visitors or potential customers.
When targeting a global Irish audience, using .irish helps build global reach and avoids local restrictions. Having the keyword "Irish" in your domain may also help Search engines like Google understand your targeting and place you higher in the results for relevant searches.
Unlike the more restrictive .ie country code top-level domain (ccTLD), .irish domains can be registered by anybody worldwide without having to prove documentary evidence of a link to Ireland.
You can register a .irish domain name by searching for it using the availability checker on this page. Once your ideal domain shows as available, you can register it (along with other domains if you want).
.irish domains can be registered for annual terms from 1 to 10 years. Once you hold a .irish domain name, you can renew it by adding additional years it any time before it expires, as long as the total period is less than 10 years.
