What is a .org.uk domain?
.org.uk is the organisation second level of the United Kingdom's .uk namespace — delegated on 24 July 1985 and run by Nominet UK, the Oxford-based registry formed in 1996. IANA records .uk as a country-code TLD with a secure DNSSEC delegation; the .uk zone itself has been signed since March 2010, and the registry publishes registration data through RDAP rather than classic WHOIS. Like .org.cn and .org.nz, this is a second-level zone inside a country code, not a TLD of its own.
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | Open second-level zone inside the UK's .uk ccTLD |
| Registry | Nominet UK, formed 1996 |
| Delegated | 24 July 1985 — one of the oldest second levels anywhere |
| DNSSEC | Served on the .uk zone since March 2010 |
| Terms | 1 to 10 years |
| Eligibility | Open worldwide — intent, not a check |
Why Indian organisations hold a .org.uk address
Because Britain is full of Indian organisations: diaspora associations, charities with British supporters, alumni networks and education counsellors all need an address that reads as local and organisational. A .org.uk name gives an Indian-run body a UK-facing identity without a UK office, and pairs naturally with a .in or .com primary site that it redirects to.
| Who | Example name | Why .org.uk fits |
|---|---|---|
| Diaspora association or samaj | bhavan.org.uk | Community body identity for UK members |
| Charity fundraising in Britain | educatetrust.org.uk | The ending British donors expect from a cause |
| University alumni network | du-alumni.org.uk | Connects UK-based graduates to the chapter |
| UK-study counselling agency | ukadmissions.org.uk | Reads as an institutional body to parents |
| Cultural or sports club | cricketcircle.org.uk | Club label for fixtures and membership |
What a .org.uk domain costs at WebJi®
.org.uk costs ₹831 for the first year and ₹1,026 for each renewal year, before 18% GST — the same band across Nominet's open second levels here. Premium names, where Nominet prices a specific label higher, are quoted before payment.

Eligibility and Nominet's exact expiry timeline
No UK presence of any kind is checked: an Indian individual or company registers with Indian contact details, and the org label is intent, not an eligibility test. The endings with real tests in the family are the restricted ones — .ltd.uk, .plc.uk, .ac.uk and .gov.uk. Nominet's field rules do require a registrant name of at least 4 characters with at least 3 letters, and the registry may check that registrant information is accurate.
Where Nominet differs from gTLDs is the clockwork after expiry — precise to the day:
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| 30 days after expiry | Name is suspended — website and email stop |
| Until 90 days after expiry | Still renewable by the registrant |
| 95 days after expiry | Name drops and anyone may register it |
Renewal reminders go to the registrant email address, so keep that mailbox live and use auto-renew.
How .org.uk transfers work — TAG changes today, codes in 2027
A .org.uk transfer is a registrar TAG change at the registry: no authorisation code and no 60-day lock, which makes it faster than a .com move. At WebJi the change is handled by our support desk rather than a cart transfer, so there is no separate transfer charge from us — write to support@webji.services with the name and we start it.
One dated change to know: Nominet has announced a move to standard EPP transfers with transfer authorisation codes on 9 February 2027. After that date .org.uk moves will look like gTLD transfers do today; until then the TAG procedure applies.
.org.uk, .co.uk or the direct .uk — which reads right?
Pick the label that matches what the body is: .org.uk for organisations, .co.uk for companies, .uk for the short modern form — all from the same registry at the same ₹831 price here. None of the three is a ranking factor; content and links decide placement, including in UK search.
- .org.uk — charities, associations and clubs; the ending British visitors trust for a cause.
- .co.uk — the commercial default for UK-facing businesses.
- .uk — the shortest form, often held beside a classic second level.
- .org — ₹1,500 a year when the organisation is global and the UK signal is optional.
After the name is registered
From registration onward it is ordinary DNS: point the name at any host and it resolves within a few hours. An association site fits on shared hosting from ₹299 a month, a committee mailbox such as chair@yourname.org.uk runs on business email hosting, the domain renewal guide walks the 30/90/95-day timeline above, and the domain transfer page explains the TAG-change procedure.
Frequently asked questions
Who runs the .org.uk registry?
Nominet UK, the registry company formed in 1996 and based in Oxford, runs .org.uk alongside .co.uk, .me.uk and the direct .uk. The second level itself dates to 24 July 1985, and IANA records the .uk country code with a secure DNSSEC delegation — the zone has been signed since March 2010.
Can I register .org.uk without a UK address or company number?
Yes. Nominet applies no territorial restrictions to the open second levels, so an Indian individual or company registers with Indian contact details — no UK address, company number or trustee service. Only the restricted endings in the family, such as .ltd.uk, .plc.uk and .ac.uk, carry real eligibility tests.
What does a .org.uk name cost over three years?
₹2,883 before 18% GST as a renewal-budget scenario: ₹831 for the first year plus two renewals at ₹1,026 each. Over five years the same arithmetic gives ₹4,935. You may also register up to 10 years in one block at checkout, which shows the exact charge before payment.
Does a temple society in India qualify for .org.uk?
Yes. The zone has no charity-status or organisation check — a society, trust or samaj registered in India registers with its own details. Nominet's only field-level rules are a registrant name of at least 4 characters with at least 3 letters, and accuracy of the information you supply.
Is DNSSEC available on .org.uk?
Yes. The .uk zone has carried DNSSEC since March 2010 with a secure root delegation, so you can sign your .org.uk records through any DNS provider that supports it. Note also that Nominet publishes registry data through RDAP rather than classic WHOIS lookups.
