Why
Why choose a .fr domain
France rewards localisation more than most markets, and it starts with the address: a .fr domain plus French-language content reads as a French business, with the customer-service expectations and trust that carries.
Eligibility is broad — any individual or organisation in the EU/EEA can register — and the price is honest both years, with no promotional spike.

FAQ
.fr domain questions
How much does a .fr domain cost?
Registering a .fr domain costs $11.99 for the first year and renews at $14.99/yr — both figures are shown side by side before you pay, so there are no year-two surprises.
Who can register a .fr domain?
Individuals resident in — and organisations established in — the EU/EEA (plus Switzerland and a few associated territories, per AFNIC policy). Registration is confirmed against those criteria.
Should the site be in French?
Yes, at least in a dedicated French version — the extension sets the expectation. Our hosting handles multilingual sites and hreflang setups without difficulty.
Is .fr only for France mainland?
.fr geo-targets France; AFNIC also operates overseas-territory extensions (.re, .yt and others), but .fr is the one French customers know and type.
