The .SARL extension has entered the General Availability phase, therefore now it is possible to order/apply for domain names within the: .SARL extension/suffix. Please contact our support via e-mail or use the contact form in order to buy .SARL domains.
Limited liability companies in French-speaking countries, such as France, Switzerland or Luxembourg, can now distinguish themselves online with the new .SARL domain. The extension stands for Société Anonyme à Responsabilité Limitée, which in French means limited liability partnership and is a perfect alternative to country-code domains, such as .FR (France), .CH (Switzerland) or .LU (Luxembourg) for businesses and enterprises.
.SARL is a new generic Top-Level Domain (Brand gTLDs gTLD) announced by ICANN, the Internet domain authority. The New gTLD Program`s goal is to enhance competition, innovation, and consumer choice. You can see it as your opportunity to get that perfect domain which has been taken by someone else. The introduction of .SARL domain extension is divided into three phases: Pre-registration, Sunrise and Landrush. After Landrush period, the .SARL domain will become public and registrations will be available to everyone (General availability).
If you are not a brand owner, before General availability you are allowed to take part only in the first phase and pre-register your desired domain names within .SARL. The use of our gTLD pre-registration module is free of charge and without any obligation to buy later on. We will keep you updated on future developments related to your preregistered domains, including information about pricing and regulations, once these have been announced by the registry responsible for a given gTLD. Please note that pre-registration of .SARL is not a queue. Although we will try our best, we cannot provide any kind of guarantee that pre-registration will eventually lead to successful registration of your chosen domain within the .SARL extension.
If you wish to secure your rights to a specific domain name, please choose our Managed TMCH Submission service which offers trademark owners a simple yet efficient way to monitor and protect their brands. It is also the only way by which trademark owners can participate in designated Sunrise periods.
For non-trademark holders Pre-registration of .SARL will be available until General availability.
The .SARL extension, which stands for Société Anonyme à Responsabilité Limitée, is the French language equivalent of LLP (Limited Liability Partnership).

The .SARL extension denotes credibility, enhances visibility, and provides a great networking platform for online community of SARLs. With an easy to remember .SARL address, your website will also attract more visitors.
