From April 2026, regions can apply for their own geographic top-level domain names, such as .brabant. The Province of North Brabant has decided not to submit an application.

Having a dedicated domain name can offer opportunities for regional profiling but also brings significant organizational and financial challenges. The province currently chooses not to submit an application.

Important to know

Commercial parties currently offer ‘pre-registrations’ for domain names such as .brabant. These pre-registrations have no value as long as the province does not submit an official application. We want to inform residents and organizations that the province will not apply for .brabant.
