Spain's national domain
Register a .es domain
Register a .es domain to speak directly to Spanish shoppers who still favor the national ending over .com. Red.es administers Spain's ccTLD and widened eligibility beyond strictly Spanish nationals back in 2005 — though current ID and documentation requirements are worth confirming at checkout rather than assuming away.
$20.90/yr
Renews at the same price. No tricks.
No privacy (registry rule)
Who picks .es?
- Consumer e-commerce and local service businesses (electricians, plumbers, clinics) selling to shoppers in Spain
- Spanish-language creators, artists, and professionals building a Spain-facing brand
- Domain-hackers using .es as a wordplay suffix for names ending in 'es'
What it signals
For consumer brands especially, .es reads as a deliberate choice to build for Spain — a local-language storefront or Spain-based service business — rather than treat Spanish buyers as an afterthought on a global .com.
Pros
- Reads as a genuine connection to Spain, which Spanish shoppers still trust over a generic .com
- Flat pricing at Modusdom means the renewal price you see is the price you keep paying
- Doubles as a domain hack for words ending in 'es' for short, brandable URLs
- SPF/DKIM/DMARC email setup included so Spain-facing mail doesn't land in spam
Watch-outs
- Flat renewal pricing means the intro price is close to what you'll always pay — not the cheapest entry point
- No free WHOIS privacy specifically for .es — Spain's registry publishes limited public contact data by default, so check what's masked
- Carries less generic trust outside Spanish-speaking markets than .com

Common questions about .es domains
How much does a .es domain cost?
A .es domain is $20.90 per year at Modusdom, and it renews at the same $20.90 every year — no discounted first year that jumps later.
Does a .es domain renew at the same price?
Yes. Our renewal price equals our first-year price — written into our promises — so your .es stays $20.90/yr in year 1, year 2, and year 10. Most registrars advertise a cheap first year, then quietly renew higher.
Do I get free WHOIS privacy on a .es domain?
The .es registry does not permit WHOIS privacy, so registrant contact details are shown per registry policy. That is a registry rule, not a Modusdom upsell — it applies wherever you register a .es.
Can I transfer an existing .es domain to Modusdom?
Yes. Transfers are free and add a year to your registration. Unlock the domain at your current registrar, copy the EPP/auth code, and start the transfer — we walk you through it, and your website and email keep working the whole time.
Is a .es domain right for my business?
