# Best domain registrars in Denmark

No registrar we track sells .dk, and as of 1 July 2026 you cannot buy one directly from the registry either: Punktum dk now requires all new .dk registrations to go through a registrar. Denmark is unusual in that identity verification is a registry-level requirement rather than a registrar nicety. Registrants with a Danish address complete an ID check using MitID together with CPR and CVR numbers, and foreign registrants are risk-assessed and may be asked to document that the address and identity they supplied are real. Budget time for that step, not just money.

## Country facts

- Country code: DK
- Currency: DKK (Danish Krone)
- Popular ccTLDs: .dk
- Local presence required: no
- Payment notes: Danish registrars invoice in kroner with Danish VAT. The registry charges its own annual fee on top of what a registrar bills, which is why .dk quotes are often split into two lines.
- Support languages: Danish-language support comes from Danish registrars. Every registrar we track supports English only, which is rarely a barrier in Denmark but matters for the ID-check paperwork.

## ccTLDs

### .dk

Denmark's country code, effectively mandatory for a Danish consumer-facing business.

- Eligibility: No Danish residency requirement, but identity is verified. Danish-address registrants must complete a MitID-based ID check; foreign registrants are risk-assessed and may be required to submit documentation proving the address and identity are correct.
- Notes: Punktum dk (formerly DK Hostmaster) administers the registry on behalf of DIFO, the IANA sponsoring organisation. Since 1 July 2026 new .dk names can only be registered through a registrar, not directly with Punktum dk. The registry publishes its accredited registrar list, which is the reliable place to start.

- Registrars we track that sell it: none — we do not track a registrar selling this ccTLD, which is a gap in our coverage, not a judgement on the ccTLD
