Buy a .pt domain

The .pt extension is the official country code TLD of Portugal and represents Portugal in the digital space. Initially subject to various restrictions, the .pt domain has been open to everyone without limitations since 2012.

Whether for business, personal use, or any type of website, a .pt extension is perfect for anything related to Portugal. It should be the top choice for anyone looking to emphasise their connection to Portuguese territory. Additionally, combining TLDs in your domain name can provide more specific information about your website’s purpose:

• .com.pt – ideal for commercial purposes
• .nome.pt – perfect for registering natural persons’ names
• .org.pt – great for non-commercial organisations

Choosing a .pt domain not only highlights your Portuguese connection but also helps in targeting the Portuguese-speaking audience more effectively.

Registering a .pt domain is open to anyone, provided it complies with the following criteria:

• Must be 2-63 characters in length, no spaces
• Can include letters (A-Z) and numbers (0-9)
• Hyphens (‘-’) are allowed but cannot be the first or last character of the domain name
• Symbols such as &, #, %, !, @, ?, *, +, =, ^, ~, <, >, [, ], (, ), |, _, \ and / cannot be used
• Punctuation: commas (,), semicolons (;), colons (:), and quotation marks (” and ‘) cannot be used
• Non-ASCII characters, i.e., accents or non-Latin scripts (e.g., Cyrillic, Arabic), are not allowed
• Can include Portuguese-specific accented characters: á, à, â, ã, ç, é, ê, í, ó, ô, õ, ú
• Some .pt domains may be reserved and not available for registration
• .gov.pt and .edu.pt domains are reserved for government entities or educational institutions and are therefore subject to restrictions
