Comment on British-owned .EU domains may be turned off on Brexit

Comments

The document [1] that it all hinges off doesn't say that it will all be turned off on exit day but says that post-exit if you have an .eu domain and you no longer meet the eligibility criteria then you won't be able to renew it (section 1 of document 1).

For individual registrants, it hinges off residency, not nationality. So if you are British but resident in the EU you are fine as long as you are using your non-UK address to register. If you are a citizen of an EU country but registered with your UK address then you'll also be caught up.
