    Key Takeaways

    • .eat domain, .fly domain and .here domain: Google Registry announced all three on November 10, 2026.
    • When can you register a .eat domain? Early access opened November 10, 2026, for a one-time fee that falls each day until November 17, 2026.
    • When it opens: the base annual price will start at 16:00 UTC on November 17, 2026, with no one-time early access fee.
    • Where to register a .fly or .here domain: through your registrar of choice, as the announcement directs.

    Google Registry announced three new top-level domains, .eat, .fly and .here, on November 10, 2026, in a blog post. A .eat domain, like the .fly and .here domains, will become publicly available at a base annual price at 16:00 UTC on November 17, 2026.

    The gap between the announcement and the public opening is 7 days, from November 10 to November 17. The three domains all share that public date, so none of them opens before the others.

    Google Registry's Early Access Program lets buyers register available domains before the public date, for an additional one-time fee. That fee decreases daily until November 17, 2026, when the public opening is set to take effect at 16:00 UTC. The base annual price is the yearly price that applies from that opening, without the one-time extra fee.

    Google .eat, .fly and .here domain dates and fees

    The public opening is set for 16:00 UTC on November 17, 2026. The announcement says all three domains will become publicly available at a base annual price at that moment, without the one-time extra fee. Until then, the early access fee falls each day, so the cost of registering a .fly or .here domain through early access depends on the day a buyer registers. The two dates to track are November 10, 2026, when the announcement was published, and November 17, 2026, when the three domains become publicly available.

    What .eat, .fly and .here domains are meant for

    Google Registry introduced three top-level domains, the endings after the last dot such as .com, for memorable web addresses. AbsoluteGeeks, which reported the launch on November 11, 2026, says each one is meant to tell visitors what they can do on a site. The announcement's own description says it shows how some brands use the domains.

    AbsoluteGeeks described the launch as the start of a land grab for names. The announcement gives no count of names available under each ending and no count of early-access buyers, so this article does not estimate demand.

    How to register a .eat, .fly or .here domain before November 17

    Start with a registrar, the company that sells domain names. The announcement says to find a .eat, .fly or .here domain through your registrar of choice. A buyer who wants an available name before the public date can use the Early Access Program, whose one-time fee falls each day until November 17, 2026. A buyer who can wait can register any name still available from 16:00 UTC on November 17, 2026, at the base annual price, with no one-time extra fee.
