EURid Accredited Registrar

Your .eu domain, in the hands of an EURid-licensed registrar

Daevon is accredited by EURid, the European authority that runs the .eu domain registry: your domain is handled under verified technical and legal standards, not by an ordinary reseller.

The EURid registrar licence, in short

EURid (European Registry for Internet Domains) is the organisation designated by the European Commission to run the .eu domain registry, and only registrars that pass its strict accreditation process can register and manage .eu domains on behalf of clients: one more safeguard for anyone entrusting a company domain to a third party.

EURid accreditation checks a registrar's technical, legal and operational compliance — IT infrastructure, security procedures, personal data protection under GDPR, service continuity and transparent handling of domain name disputes — so domain holders don't have to verify all of that themselves.

The licence isn't permanent: it's renewed periodically and subject to audits, and EURid can revoke accreditation from registrars that fail to maintain the required standards. Active accreditation is therefore an up-to-date guarantee, not a title earned once and kept forever.

What changes with an EURid-accredited registrar

Guaranteed European digital identity

The .eu domain is the European Union's top-level country code: registering it through an accredited registrar means putting your digital identity in the hands of an operator held to the strictest European standards, not just any intermediary.

Native GDPR compliance

GDPR isn't optional for an EURid registrar: it governs how WHOIS data is managed and every registration procedure, protecting the personal data of domain holders.

Reliable, certified infrastructure

Redundant IT infrastructure, high uptime SLAs and disaster recovery procedures are accreditation requirements, not marketing promises: your domain stays in the hands of verified, monitored systems.

Managing .eu domains, step by step

1

Compliant, transparent registration

Every .eu domain registration follows official EURid procedures: verified holder identity, transparent contracts and documentary confirmation, with no informal shortcuts.

2

WHOIS data protection and privacy

Holders' personal data is processed under GDPR, and WHOIS information stays protected under EURid's privacy policies: only authorised parties can access it.

3

Redundant DNS infrastructure

Daevon spreads the DNS for the domains it manages across multiple European data centres, with a 99.9% uptime SLA: your domain stays reachable even if one location fails.

4

Dispute and transfer management

In case of a transfer or a domain name dispute, Daevon follows the ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) procedures set out in European regulation: the holder's rights stay protected at every step.

What your business gets out of it

European credibility for your brand

To your customers, partners and search engines, a .eu domain managed by an accredited registrar signals trustworthiness and European compliance before you have to prove it yourself.

Guaranteed data privacy and security

WHOIS data managed under GDPR and EURid security procedures keep your digital identity safe from abuse and unauthorised access.

The most common questions about the EURid licence

What is EURid, and what does it mean to be an accredited registrar?
EURid is the organisation entrusted by the European Commission with running the .eu domain registry. An accredited registrar has passed a technical, legal and operational review that certifies its ability to register and manage .eu domains in line with European standards.
What difference does an EURid-accredited registrar make for my .eu domain?
An accredited registrar guarantees security, GDPR compliance, certified infrastructure and official dispute resolution procedures. A non-accredited reseller operates without these guarantees, exposing your domain to risks of transfer issues, data loss or service interruptions.
How is my privacy protected on a .eu domain registered through Daevon?
Your domain's WHOIS data is processed under GDPR: personal information isn't publicly accessible, and only parties entitled to it under European data protection law can view it.
Can I transfer an existing .eu domain to Daevon?
Yes: Daevon manages the transfer of .eu domains from any other EURid-accredited registrar, following the standard procedures set out in the regulation. It's generally completed within 5 business days, with no service interruption.
