Important information on .ch/.li domains

Registrations

You can order domains easily by using our web interface if you are a registered customer of Knipp. Registering is easy and can be done in just a few steps.
Another possiblity is to order domains via e-mail application form. The e-mail registration has the advantage that it can be done automatically. Many customers use robots on their web site that send e-mail application forms to us. However, using these forms is suited for experts only, since they contain quite a few technical terms, which are unfortunately necessary. We have prepared a page with explanations which will help you to complete the form.

Naming regulations

Generally speaking, any domain name is possible unless it contradicts the basic restrictions valid for all ccTLDs.
Normally, .ch and .li domain names consist of the letters “a” to “z”, the digits “0” to “9”, as well as the hyphen. Since 1 March 2004, it has been possible to register domain names with accents and umlauts (so-called IDNs). These are taken from the character set of the Unicode table Latin-1 Supplement. On 1 December 2005, the œ character from the character set of the table Latin Extended-A was also added.

Service bundle

Beyond the actual registration of domains we also provide a large bundle of additional services. For our customers, these services are available without any additional costs.

Costs

You can view the costs for domain registrations in our price list. We will send you invoices via postal mail after every successful registration. Additionally, you can browse your bills online.

Rules of allocation

.ch- and .li domains may be globally registered by everyone in an unlimited number.
