Learn what it is, how much it costs, when it appears on your bill, and which domain extensions currently require it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Intro<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve ever bought or renewed a domain name you might have noticed a small line item called an <strong>ICANN fee<\/strong> on your invoice. It\u2019s tiny \u2014 usually just a few cents per year \u2014 but it\u2019s helpful to know what it is, why it\u2019s charged, and which domain extensions include it. This post explains the ICANN fee in plain language and lists the domain extensions that require it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is an ICANN fee?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/ICANN\">ICANN<\/a><\/strong>) is the nonprofit organization that coordinates the global Domain Name System (DNS). As part of its role, ICANN collects a <strong>mandatory annual fee of $0.20 (twenty US cents)<\/strong> for each year of domain registration, renewal, or transfer when the domain\u2019s registry requires it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where applicable, the ICANN fee is <strong>added to the listed price<\/strong> for the domain at the time of purchase and is <strong>itemized in your shopping cart or invoice<\/strong>, so you can see it separately from the domain registration price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How much is the fee?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Amount:<\/strong> <strong>$0.20 per year<\/strong> per domain (when applicable).<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>When applied:<\/strong> On registration, renewal, and transfers \u2014 for each year you register\/renew\/transfer.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Visibility:<\/strong> It should be shown separately on the shopping cart or checkout receipt as an ICANN fee.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why does ICANN charge this fee?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>ICANN uses the funds it collects to support core global coordination and administrative functions related to domain names and the DNS. The fee is small because it\u2019s spread across millions of domain registrations worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Which domain extensions require an ICANN fee?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The following domain extensions (TLDs) require the ICANN fee and, when you purchase or renew them, the $0.20-per-year charge will be added and

check your cart \u2014 registrars will itemize the ICANN fee at checkout if it applies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Quick examples<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Buying <strong>example.com<\/strong> for 2 years: ICANN fee = $0.20 \u00d7 2 = <strong>$0.40<\/strong> (added and itemized).<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Renewing <strong>example.app<\/strong> for 1 year: ICANN fee = <strong>$0.20<\/strong>.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the fee is so small, it rarely changes the buying decision \u2014 it\u2019s mostly about transparency at checkout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ICANN fee is a minor, mandatory charge (when required by the registry) used to help fund ICANN\u2019s global domain coordination work. It\u2019s typically <strong>$0.20 per year<\/strong>, added to registrations, renewals, and transfers for affected domain extensions and shown as a separate line item at checkout. If you\u2019re buying domains frequently, it\u2019s helpful to know which TLDs include the fee \u2014 and now you do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ICANN fee is a small mandatory charge added to many domain registrations, renewals and transfers.
