Who can register .film domains?
There are two scenarios where an applicant or registrant is eligible to register a .film domain name:
- The applicant or registrant must be a member of an approved association, body or union and closely connected to the domain name.
- If the domain name is a film title, the applicant or registrant must be a member of an approved association, body or union and hold rights to the exact matching film title.
For a list of approved associations, bodies, and unions, or for more information about eligibility requirements, please see the Eligibility section of the .film registry.
