Are You interested in having a single-character .ee domain address, or an .ee address associated with different places and country names? Auction starts from 16th of May!
As the aim of the EIF is to be an open and liberal registry and to ensure equal access for all those interested in the .ee domain name resource, the reservations ended at the end of April of this year, and all the domains that have been reserved so far, but which have not been taken up in the last 12 years, will be made available through an English auction.
Thereafter, many number combinations, Estonian place names, many country names and all single-character domains will be auctioned from week to week. The English auction is an open auction – you can see both the current best bid and the number of bids in real time. Proceeds from the auction will be invested in a more efficient .ee, a safer Estonian internet and used for grants.
So – keep an eye on our channels, because that’s where you’ll get instant updates on which domains are up for auction each week!

Nordic Domain Days 2026: The Domain Industry Is Getting Quieter, Smarter, and More Complicated
This year's Nordic Domain Days brought together registries, registrars, investors, service providers, and policy and technology people from across the domain industry in Stockholm. The conversations and presentations kept circling back to the same idea: domain names aren't becoming less important - they're becoming less visible, more automated, and increasingly entangled with trust, data quality, cybersecurity, and AI.

.EE Reaches New Milestone with 200,000 Registered Domains
Estonia’s national domain has reached a major milestone: the number of registered .ee domains has surpassed 200,000 for the first time. This also shows that .ee is one of the fastest-growing country code domains in Europe. The achievement further reinforces Estonia’s position as a digital society, where a domain name and the website connected to it are important parts of digital identity.
Three Meetings, One Message: DNS Abuse Is Reshaping the Domain Industry
The past few weeks brought three important international meetings that looked at the domain industry from different angles, yet reached many of the same conclusions. CENTR Jamboree brought together European top-level domain registries, Nordic Domain Days focused on practical solutions alongside industry experts, and ICANN83 discussed global internet governance and policy development. One topic stood out most clearly across all three events: DNS abuse and the question of what role registries should play in ensuring internet security.
