.ie registrar in Ireland, read from its own storefront on 2026-10-20

Accredited by .IEAlso accredited by 10 other registries

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

Its own page offers .ie through a English storefront, but on 2026-10-20 it printed no .ie price with its VAT treatment that this site could read, so it is listed on the Ireland page as read and not ranked.

Why it is not ranked

The page prints .ie at €12.99 for the first year with €29.99 beside it, but states no VAT treatment, so it cannot be set beside a VAT-inclusive price.

What its page printed

".ie Domain Name ... Starting at €29.99 €12.99 /1st yr"; no VAT wording.

Read from https://www.godaddy.com/en/tlds/ie-domain on 2026-10-20. 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 Ireland storefronts were read

The registry's full list of .ie accredited registrars (115 names, plus GoDaddy from its partner page) was read on 2026-09-29, and 11 storefronts were opened: nine Irish retail brands plus the OVHcloud and Gandi pages. Blacknight's pages were not found, Hosting Ireland returned 502, and Irish Domains and GoDaddy returned 403. Maxer displayed US dollars and Gandi priced for France. Five stores print a regular .ie price in euros excluding 23% VAT, each with a cut first year. On 2026-10-15 the remaining 105 registrars on IEDR's list that publish a website were opened, so every registrar on the list with a published website has now been tried: 79 were read, 26 could not be, and 3 more print a comparable .ie price. On 2026-10-20/21 the 30 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: 14 were read this time, 16 still could not be, and none of those read prints a comparable .ie price.

FAQ

Is GoDaddy accredited to sell .ie?
Yes. GoDaddy is on the accredited-registrar list .IE publishes, read on 2026-09-29. Accreditation means the registry permits it to sell the namespace; it does not by itself mean the registrar retails .ie to the public, which is what the storefront read establishes.
What does GoDaddy charge for a .ie domain?
Its page offers .ie, but on 2026-10-20 it printed no .ie price with its VAT treatment that this site could read: The page prints .ie at €12.99 for the first year with €29.99 beside it, but states no VAT treatment, so it cannot be set beside a VAT-inclusive price.
Has this site tested GoDaddy?
No. We have run no support test, no transfer test and no uptime measurement on GoDaddy, so it carries no score and appears in no quality ranking. The .ie ranking on the Ireland page orders registrars by one printed price only.
