The .UK zone files

Introduction

The zone file is available to all and contains files for the .uk, .co.uk, .org.uk, .me.uk, .ltd.uk, .plc.uk, .net.uk and .sch.uk zones, subject to standard licence terms.

We will also provide a list of all domains currently registered with Nominet. This will include domains that are suspended, or do not have nameservers attached and are therefore not included in zone files.

How to apply

Members can find the ‘Zone File Signup’ application form under the ‘Account Settings’ section of our online service.

Non-members please email [email protected] with your company name (if applicable), contact name and email address.

You will be required to confirm that you accept the terms and conditions of the Zone File Access Licence and provide identification.

We will process your application within one working day and once it has been accepted, you will receive an email from Files.com ([email protected]), rather than Nominet, with your account details and further instructions.

How to cancel

To cancel your access to the zone files, please inform us by sending either a secure message from your online service account or an email from the account which has access to the zone file to  [email protected]. Access to the zone files will be terminated if the licence is breached.

Methods

You can download the .UK zone files via a web interface or SFTP. Instructions are available once you log in to the service.

Fees

The service is currently provided free of charge.
