Does 20i support .ac.uk domains?

Yes, 20i does support the registration, or transfer of .ac.uk domain names!

What is an ac.uk domain?

An ac.uk domain is a specific type of domain name used in the United Kingdom, specifically for academic institutions such as universities, colleges and research institutions. These domains require specific requirements which means we do not provide pricing on our main website, and they cannot be ordered through the standard means.

How much do they cost?

.ac.uk domain names cost £25.00 for the transfer into 20i, or, if you're registering, £100.00 for a one year registration/renewal.

What are these specific requirements?

Janet/Jisc, the body in charge of .ac.uk domains, will require you or your client's organisation to meet their eligibility requirements which are outlined here: https://community.jisc.ac.uk/library/janet-services-documentation/eligibility-policy
