Estonian domains will no longer be free
Until now, Estonia has remained one of the few countries where domain name registration was carried out completely free of charge. Of course, under certain restrictions: only citizens of this Baltic state, as well as organizations and institutions registered in Estonia, could become owners of a domain, while one organization could claim only one domain name.
At the beginning of this year, the management of EENet , the official registrar of EE domains, confirmed plans to change the registration of domain names in the national domain of Estonia during 2008. It is possible that domain registration will be paid, writes Postimees .
EENet Director Mihkel Kraav and Head of the Institute of Chemical and Biophysics (EE domain administrator) Raivo Stern told Äripäev newspaper that the order of registration will probably change already this year.
Since 2006, there have been rumors about the possibility for individuals to register domains in the EE zone, as well as the possibility of registering several domains per one legal entity.

If the changes are implemented, Internet providers will register the domains, and EENet will act as the technical center of the Estonian domain. services.
According to Kraawa, EENet is ready to launch a paid registration system in 3-4 months. The cost of registration will be the same as for the EU domains - 10 euro (156 kronor).
“Until now, we have successfully served domains, at least, no complaints have been heard. And we will do this next year too, because domain regulation is important for the development of science. The fact that EE domains will be paid is necessary because the private sector takes domains very intensively. For 15 years we have been doing this work for free, and the state also did not allocate resources for this. Sponsors helped us pay the fees of international organizations, ”added the director of the institute, Raivo Sterna.
