Domain .hospital - New TLDs

.hospital domain information

.hospital is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) for hospitals, healthcare networks, medical services and the broader ecosystem that surrounds them.

.hospital domain–no restrictions

Despite the sensitive healthcare context, registration is open to anyone worldwide with no eligibility requirements. Your domain activates in realtime, and registration, renewal and transfer are all the same price.

Does registering a .hospital domain require medical credentials?

No. Unlike some health-sector TLDs — such as .pharmacy, which requires verification by a national pharmacy regulator — .hospital carries no eligibility restrictions. The registry does not verify that registrants are associated with a medical institution. The extension is open to any registrant for any purpose.

This makes it equally available to hospitals themselves, healthcare technology companies, patient advocates, review platforms, recruitment agencies, equipment suppliers and any other business or individual in or adjacent to the healthcare sector.

Why should you register a .hospital domain name?

A .hospital address communicates the nature of your work before a visitor reads a word. In an online environment where trust is especially important to patients and medical professionals, a recognisable, purpose-built extension can reinforce credibility at a glance.

"Hospital" is also widely understood across languages — it is used directly or in close cognate form in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Catalan, making the extension internationally legible beyond English-speaking markets.
