This connection may exist through a registered place of business and a physical administrative base in Switzerland. An entry in the commercial register or the status of an association or a foundation is also required. Natural persons can apply for a .SWISS domain name starting 24. April 2024. Please see the Domains Limitations and Reuqirements for further information.


Please note that the .SWISS registry will publish the registration requests of all domains on its website every Tuesday for 20 days. During this time it will be possible for other entities to place competing applications.

There are special requirements regarding the format of the authorization code. Please consider the following restrictions, if you want to assign a new authorization code to a domain:

  • Minimum 8 characters
  • having at least one (1) numeric,
  • one (1) alphabetic, and
  • one (1) special character

You may generate a valid random auth code by adding this parameter to the ModifyDomain command:

command = ModifyDomain
domain = (DOMAIN)

Please note the following change starting 24. April 2024

From 24. April 2024, natural persons will be able to apply for a .SWISS domain: The following changes will apply with this date:

  • New extension: X-SWISS-OWNER-TYPE = P | O (person | organisation)
    • If X-SWISS-OWNER-TYPE is set to P, please use the extension as follows: X-SWISS-UID = <756.dddd.dddd.dd> (dedicated format for Universal Person Identification; d = digit)
    • If X-SWISS-OWNER-TYPE is set to O, the use of the extension is the same as before: X-SWISS-UID = <CHE-ddd.ddd.ddd> (dedicated format for Business Identification Number or Enterprise ID, d = digit)
  • X-SWISS-UID will replace X-SWISS-REGISTRANT-ENTERPRISE-ID : which will be deprecated on 24. April 2024.


X-CORE-INTENDED-USE : Field describing the intended use for the domain name.

To enable the registry to verify a registrant's eligibility for the use of a specific domain, registrars must supply an "enterprise ID" information string for the registrant contact of a .swiss domain, denoting the registered company ID of the company represented by the contact. Natural persons may only register a .swiss domain name if it contains at least one of the following designations:

  • one of the official names or other names registered in the civil register
  • one of the forenames
  • a married name
  • a registered partnership name
  • a name received in a religious order
  • an artist's name under which the person has become known or
  • a name attached to a distinctive sign (e.g. a registered trade mark) to which the applicant has the rights

A freely chosen designation may be added to any of these compulsory designations.
