Register your .gov.uk domain at Getdotted
As with all our domains, you'll get a free email address and one-page website so you can get up and running straight away
Having a .gov.uk domain for your organisation will increase trust in both your website and your emails. You may even find you receive a boost in search engines.
Unlike other domain types where the registration process is automated, registering a .gov.uk domain is a largely manual process, with registration restricted to organisations that meet specific requirements. More information on applying for a .gov.uk domain can be found at https://www.gov.uk/apply-for-and-manage-a-gov-uk-domain-name.
Why register with GetDotted?
We know your domain, email and website are important to you. We've been established for over 20 years, and are a Nominet Accredited Registrar - we know what we're doing when it comes to domains.

Our support team are UK-based too, and available 7 days a week (excl. bank holidays) to assist with anything you need.
