Spanish domain - easy .es registration with Abion
A Spanish domain increases your visibility in the Spanish market and improves your chances for a successful expansion in Europe. It is important, however, that the domain registration is done correctly according to Spanish rules and guidelines. Here you can read more about what applies to Spanish top-level domains and how we at Abion can assist with a successful registration.
Increase your visibility in the Spanish market
If your company plans to expand in Europe and establish itself in the Spanish market, a Spanish .es domain is an important and valuable tool. With a .es domain, you increase your visibility in the Spanish market and become more accessible to Spanish users and potential customers. Something that plays a significant role in your chances of survival – and not least success. Due to Spain's size and strong sense of national identity, there is tough competition against Spanish companies.

What is a Spanish domain?
A Spanish domain is a domain name that is specifically dedicated to Spain. The official Spanish top-level domain (abbreviated TLD) has the suffix .es – which is a so-called country domain, just like our Swedish .se domain. The Spanish top-level domain ..es, in turn, comes in several different variants, depending on whether the domain belongs to a company or a private individual:
- .es: Main domain applicable to all types of entities regardless of form (company or individual)
- .com.es: Intended for commercial companies and organisations
- .nom.es: Intended for domain names based on personal names and can only be registered by individuals
- .org.es: Used by non-commercial organizations – for example, government agencies and non-profit organizations
The purpose of all forms of a Spanish .es domain, regardless of form, is both to make companies and organisations with interests and operations in Spain more visible in the national market, and to help users identify websites as Spanish.
Who can register a Spanish domain with the .es extension?
Just like with most other country domains, anyone can register a Spanish TLD with the .es extension – provided that all conditions and technical limitations are met.
Anyone who wants to register a Spanish domain must first and foremost provide a valid ID number issued by a government authority. For individuals and sole proprietors, this can be verified with an ID card, driver's license, or passport, and for companies with a VAT registration number and/or a company registration number. In addition to this basic requirement, there are also some conditions regarding design and allowed characters to consider.
