.ee domain price to drop to 9 euros
An .ee domain can be registered for one, two or three years. The domain name registration fee in 2015 will be 9, 17 or 24 euros depending on the length of the registration period.
According to Aet Rahe, chairman of the Foundation’s Supervisory Board, it is possible to cut the price thanks to the efficient functioning of the Foundation and the favourable market situation. “The Estonian Internet Foundation is implementing the strategy adopted in 2013; the activity of the Foundation is increasingly cost-effective and the number of registered .ee domain names is increasing year on year, last year by even as much as 9%. These factors have allowed us to bring the price of the service down,” said Rahe.
The prices are the domain name registration fees charged by the Estonian Internet Foundation from registrars, i.e. service providers. The amount of the registration fee to the registrant is established by the registrar. VAT is added to the fee.

As expected, the main themes included the next round of generic domains, the WSIS+20 process, and the ongoing challenge of DNS abuse. At the same time, the meeting offered a valuable chance to share experiences and learn from others.

Domain Registries in a Regulatory Maze: Reflections from the CENTR Legal & Regulatory Meeting in Stockholm
I participated in the CENTR Legal & Regulatory (L&R) working group meeting in Stockholm, where legal experts from European domain registries gathered to exchange views. This time, the focus was on the growing body of European Union legislation that increasingly shapes our daily work — rules we must constantly interpret, analyse, and implement in practice.
