What is a .fi domain?
.fi is Finland's official top-level domain (TLD, top level domain). The domain is a country domain specifically intended for businesses and individuals in Finland, as well as foreign actors who want to be visible in the Finnish market.
The administrator of Finland's top-level domain is the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency (Traficom). They are the ones who determine the registration conditions that apply to .fi and grant authorisation to .fi domain providers.
Good to consider before registration
- How many Finnish domains do you need? Is one enough, or do you want to register more if, for example, you have multiple brands?
- Create a domain strategy or book a domain consultation to get help. Preparation and planning increase the chances of success with your .fi domain.
- Check that your intended domain name is available and that it is not too similar to an already registered domain name. If your desired domain name is taken, we can assist with inquiries and negotiations for acquisition.
- For trademark protection, you should register your domain as early as possible – before you start marketing yourself in Finland.
Available for entities worldwide
.fi is an open country domain available to users around the world. There are no restrictions on who can register a Finnish domain or requirements that you must have your seat in Finland. As long as the basic registration requirements are met and your domain name is legal and does not infringe on someone else's trademark, you can apply for registration through an approved provider.
