Register your .gal domain name
Included with every domain
There is no specific procedure related to the registration of a domain name.
.GAL domain names are allocated on a "first come, first served" basis.
Restrictions / Allocation Rules:
Owner
Physical person or organisation with a nexus to the Galician community, at the time of registration and thereafter.
The website must have
- A significant content in Galician language, although it has other languages.; Or
- A content in relation with Galician culture or online services specifically targeted to the Galician community and contributing to their full development.
In order to transfer your domain name to Netim, you must disable transfer protections and obtain the authorisation code from your current Registrar.
The transfer may take several days.
When the transfer is finalised, a year is added to the expiry date of the domain name.
To change the holder, you must first go through an authentication process.
To that end, validation emails will be sent to both current and future domain holders.
After a period of 5 days, the request will be cancelled.
The domain expiration date is not affected by the transfer process.
The .gal extension does not support special characters.
Netim is an accredited registrar
By choosing an accredited Registrar, you avoid middlemen which in turn gives you access to lower prices and makes domain registration, as well as other operations, quicker.
