What is the .es domain?
.es is the country-code top-level domain of Spain, managed by Red.es, the Spanish public body based at Plaza Manuel Gómez Moreno in Madrid. Created in April 1988, it was redelegated to Red.es under an IANA report dated 5 August 2005. The zone is DNSSEC-signed and its WHOIS service runs at whois.nic.es.

Which Indian businesses need a .es domain?
Indian companies that sell to Spanish buyers or Spanish-speaking customers are the natural buyers: exporters, B2B service firms and travel operators with a Spanish-language site. A buyer in Madrid or Barcelona reads a .es address as local, the way an Indian buyer trusts .in, so it suits a translated catalogue or a contact page aimed at Spain.
| Sector | Example name | Purpose of the .es site |
|---|---|---|
| Garment exporter (Tiruppur, Noida) | tuempresa.es | Spanish catalogue for boutique and chain buyers |
| Leather goods (Kanpur, Agra, Chennai) | pielindia.es | Samples and minimum order quantities in Spanish |
| Generic pharma or API supplier | yourbrand.es | Product dossier enquiries from Spanish distributors |
| IT and BPO services | yourfirm.es | Spanish-language service pages and case studies |
| Inbound tour operator | viajesrajasthan.es | Itineraries for Spanish-speaking travellers |
How much does a .es domain cost from India?
WebJi® registers .es at ₹716 a year and renews it at the same ₹716, before 18% GST, which makes it one of the cheapest European country codes we sell. A five-year term, one of the periods Red.es allows, costs ₹3,580 (5 × ₹716). Moving an existing .es name to WebJi® carries no separate transfer charge.
| Extension | Year 1 (₹) | Renewal (₹/yr) | 5 years (₹) | Audience |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| .es | ₹716 | ₹716 | ₹3,580 | Spain |
| .de | ₹736 | ₹777 | ₹3,844 | Germany |
| .eu | ₹729 | ₹905 | ₹4,349 | The EU as a whole |
| .com | ₹1,380 | ₹1,480 | ₹7,300 | Global |

Can you register .es from India without a Spanish address?
Yes. Second-level .es has been open to registrants outside Spain since November 2005, and no Spanish address, office or NIE is required. Red.es’s rules refer to registrants with interests in or links to Spain, so WebJi® checks your intended use with you before ordering. What the registry does verify is identity.
- Companies outside Spain: give a business registration or VAT-type number, such as an Indian CIN or GSTIN.
- Individuals outside Spain: give a passport or driving licence number.
- Administrative contact: must be a natural person, not a company.
- Data checks: Red.es may email from an @red.es address asking you to correct details; per the registry’s process, an uncorrected record can be cancelled after three calendar days without refund.
- Privacy: the WebJi® privacy proxy is not available on .es; what the public WHOIS shows is set by Red.es, and we confirm it before you pay.
.es, .eu or .com for selling into Spain?
Use .es when Spain is a priority market and the site is in Spanish; use .eu for one site serving several EU countries; keep .com as the global hub. Google uses a ccTLD such as .es as a strong country signal, which helps Spanish searchers and limits reach elsewhere, so a .es site should be written for Spain specifically.
Many exporters point the .es name at a Spanish folder on their main site (yourbrand.com/es/) until enough Spanish content exists for a separate site. Spanish characters such as ñ are covered on our internationalised domain names page.
Renewing and transferring a .es domain
.es renews only in the registry’s fixed periods of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 years, and transfers use an AuthCode sent to the administrative contact, who approves the move by email. With more than 30 days left the expiry date is unchanged; inside 30 days the transfer is billed as a renewal at ₹716. Ownership changes go through Red.es’s own panel instead. See domain transfer for the general process and manufacturing and export hosting for multilingual catalogue sites.
Frequently asked questions
Who manages the .es domain registry?
Red.es, a Spanish public entity in Madrid, is both the administrative and technical contact in the IANA root zone database. It runs the registry through nic.es and dominios.es and operates the WHOIS server whois.nic.es.
Can an Indian private limited company hold a .es name with its CIN?
Yes. A company outside Spain identifies itself with a registration or tax number, so an Indian CIN or GSTIN can be supplied; WebJi® confirms the number before ordering. Name a director or manager as the administrative contact, because that role must be a person.
Why can I not register a .es domain for seven years?
Red.es allows only terms of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 years. For a long hold, choose 10 years at ₹7,160 before 18% GST, or 5 years at ₹3,580 and renew later.
Will a .es domain help my site rank in India?
No. Google treats .es as a Spain-targeted address, so it is the wrong choice for Indian customers. Keep a .in or .com for India and use .es only for Spanish-language content.
Is the .es zone signed with DNSSEC?
Yes. IANA shows a secure delegation for .es with two DS records published, so a .es name can be DNSSEC-signed if your DNS host supports it.
