.art is a generic top-level domain, delegated in 2016, and IANA records UK Creative Ideas Limited as its sponsoring organisation, in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The registry points registrants at art.art for registration services. That delegation record was last updated on 30 Apr 2024; if the registry has changed hands since, IANA is where it shows up first.

UK Creative Ideas presents .art as an extension for the artistic community rather than a restricted one, and publishes no qualifying criteria a registrant must meet. Its registry agreement with ICANN, signed 24 March 2016, is recorded as Base, Non-Sponsored — no sponsoring community stands behind the extension, so there is no community test to pass.

Availability of .art names is checked against the registry's own RDAP server (rdap.centralnic.com) and DNS-over-HTTPS. On this site your browser asks that server directly for a first, provisional answer; our server's check confirms it, and only that answer is cached. Premium suspects (such as very short names) and brand-protected labels also get a third signal, Fastly Domain Research, before they are shown as available.
The lowest renewal among the 3 registrars we track is $21.11 a year at Porkbun. The highest is $39.99 at GoDaddy, so the same .art name costs $18.88 a year more depending on where it sits. Prices verified between 13 Sep 2026 and 4 Oct 2026.

3 of the six registrars in our price table: Porkbun, OVHcloud and GoDaddy. The others either do not sell .art or have not been re-verified recently enough to show, and a price we cannot re-verify is not printed. Each row carries its own verification date; these were verified between 13 Sep 2026 and 4 Oct 2026.
