Hostserver

.de registrar in Germany, read from its own storefront on 2026-10-08

Accredited by DENIC

Can a member of the public buy a .de here?

Not established. .de was not among the namespaces on the page read on 2026-10-08. That is a fact about the page we read, not a finding that the registrar does not sell it.

Why it is not ranked

No price on the page read.

Namespaces on its own page

No namespace list could be read from the page.

What its page printed

German page on domain registration within managed hosting; no price printed.

Read from https://www.hostserver.de/managed-hosting/domainregistrierung/ on 2026-10-08. A storefront read establishes the language, the currency and the figure the page printed that day. It does not establish support quality, uptime or what a renewal will cost next year.

How the Germany storefronts were read

Eight German retail brands from DENIC's member list plus the two tracked registrars with a German storefront were opened in a real browser on 2026-09-28. Checkdomain and INWX returned 404 on the page tried, Key-Systems 403, and Host Europe printed no price; Gandi's German address redirects to its English storefront. On 2026-10-20/21 the 3 storefronts that could not be read were opened again in a browser that waits longer for pages built by script, reads framed pages and follows a redirect from plain http to https: 2 were read this time, 1 still could not be, and none of those read prints a comparable .de price. On 2026-10-08, 34 storefronts were read by hand from their own .de pricing pages: 1 already listed here now carry a comparable .de price, and 33 were opened for the first time, 14 of them with a comparable price. On 2026-10-26, 30 storefronts were read by hand, looking for a page that states the tax treatment of its .de price: 30 were added and 0 re-read, and the number with a comparable .de price went from 17 to 23.

FAQ

Is Hostserver accredited to sell .de?
Yes. Hostserver is on the accredited-registrar list DENIC publishes, read on 2026-09-20. Accreditation means the registry permits it to sell the namespace; it does not by itself mean the registrar retails .de to the public, which is what the storefront read establishes.
What does Hostserver charge for a .de domain?
Not established. .de was not among the namespaces on the page read on 2026-10-08: No price on the page read.
Has this site tested Hostserver?
No. We have run no support test, no transfer test and no uptime measurement on Hostserver, so it carries no score and appears in no quality ranking. The .de ranking on the Germany page orders registrars by one printed price only.
