8,648 names in the September 3, 2026 zone snapshot.
Nominet UK operates the .CYMRU registry.
Welsh-language characters and a linked mirror variant can be supported.
.CYMRU is a small, focused part of the new-gTLD market. The blue slice is enlarged for visibility while the surrounding categories use DNIB Q1 2026 market totals.
The suffix is most useful when Welsh identity, language, or audience is a meaningful part of the brand rather than an afterthought.
“Cymru” is the Welsh name for Wales, so the suffix communicates Welsh identity directly before a visitor opens the website.
Nominet supports Welsh IDNs in .CYMRU, including second-level names with Welsh diacritics and a linked plain/accented mirror variant under its IDN rules.
Nominet operates .CYMRU as an ICANN gTLD, with registrar-based registration and standard UDRP or URS procedures for domain disputes.
The .CYMRU active-domain count is shown beside selected regional and cultural gTLDs measured from the same daily zone-file source. This comparison gives buyers a clearer view of .CYMRU within the wider market for place- and identity-focused domain namespaces.
Public .CYMRU aftermarket sales are limited, but Crypto.cymru provides a notable publicly reported example of buyer demand for a strong, memorable name in this Welsh-focused namespace.
Use it to make the relationship with Wales clear, support Welsh-language content, protect a regional brand, or give clients a culturally relevant alternative to a generic extension.
Use a domain that makes a Welsh market focus visible before customers even reach the homepage.
Pair Welsh-language content with a suffix and IDN support designed for Welsh online use.
Give events, destinations, community groups, and cultural projects an address that feels locally relevant.
Offer .CYMRU to clients that want Welsh market positioning alongside broader domain portfolios.
If you already own .CYMRU domains elsewhere, transfer decisions should not be based only on one renewal invoice. Check transfer eligibility, ownership access, billing reliability, support response time, API needs, and long-term domain management.
Paste multiple .CYMRU names, remove duplicates, review the count, and continue to bulk registration. This is useful for domain investors, brand teams, agencies, hosting providers, and resellers.
Enter one name per line, with or without .CYMRU. The tool removes duplicates and prepares a clean list for bulk registration.

Short answers about Welsh eligibility, Nominet, IDNs, transfers, disputes, .WALES, and portfolio management before you register.
.CYMRU is a generic top-level domain for Welsh identity and Welsh-language use online. IANA lists Nominet UK as the sponsoring organization and registry operator.
Nominet’s .CYMRU registry information requires registrant data but does not list Welsh residency as an eligibility condition. This makes the suffix usable by businesses, organizations, individuals, and international brands with a genuine Welsh audience or identity.
Yes. Nominet supports Welsh IDNs in .CYMRU. Welsh second-level names can use supported diacritics, with the domain submitted to the registry in its ASCII/Punycode form.
Nominet’s IDN policy can allow one linked mirror variant with or without diacritics for the same registrant and registrar. The mirror follows the lifecycle and nameservers of the original domain.
.CYMRU uses the Welsh word for Wales, while .WALES uses the English-language form. Many organizations choose the one that best matches their audience, and some protect both versions for brand consistency.
If the domain is eligible and NiceNIC supports the transfer, prepare the authorization details required by the current registrar and follow the standard gTLD domain transfer process.
Nominet states that .CYMRU and .WALES disputes can be handled through the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) or the Uniform Rapid Suspension System (URS).
Use the .CYMRU search and registration section above to check the name you want and review the current NiceNIC price shown for your account.
NiceNIC offers bulk tools and a reseller program for customers managing larger domain portfolios, with API workflows available for supported extensions.
Register a new .CYMRU, transfer an existing domain, or upgrade your account level for bulk registration and reseller API use.
