Search the .co.uk namespace
This collection contains scheduled names ending in .co.uk from the accepted Nominet list. It is separate from the direct .uk collection. The same label under .co.uk and .uk represents two different registrations, even when the names look closely related.
Check the complete name before you shortlist it. A matching direct .uk registration is not included with a .co.uk name, and a drop schedule for one does not establish the position of the other. Our .co.uk versus .uk guide explains the practical questions around paired names and administration.
Use a word or exact name, the offered date range and the label-length filter to narrow the list. Label length excludes the .co.uk suffix. Hyphens and numbers can be useful filters for your intended naming style; none is a measure of market value, traffic or quality.
Assess the name in its full context
Consider how the exact .co.uk address would work when spoken aloud, typed, shown in email and used alongside your existing identity. Investigate confusingly similar names and potential trade mark issues before spending money. A familiar phrase is not permission to use somebody else's brand.
Review the former website and the limitations of any archived record. A missing capture is not a clean-history certificate. A domain registration does not automatically include copyright in old content, customer data or a former business. The history-check guide helps turn these questions into a record of evidence and uncertainties.
If you also care about the corresponding direct .uk name, research it separately through UK WHOIS lookup. Make each check deliberately and read the public fields with their own timestamp and limitations. A name absent from this .co.uk list may still be registered, outside the source coverage or involved in a process the list does not describe.
Read the scheduled time and source status
The table uses Nominet's published drop time and displays UK local time alongside UTC. It does not derive a release date from an expiry field or infer the outcome of a past scheduled time. A list entry is a schedule, not a reservation or an offer to sell the domain.
Check the publication and import information above the results. A daily snapshot is not continuously updated registry availability. If the current data is stale or its source age is unknown, reminder creation and sending are paused until usable data can be reconciled. The explanatory message distinguishes that condition from a genuine empty result.
The drop-list guide explains the source and its limits. The wider UK drop search lets you compare supported namespaces without treating them as interchangeable registrations.
Plan your next step
An eligible future entry may offer a verified email reminder or an email-free calendar file. The reminder does not attempt registration; the calendar download does not update itself after a schedule change. Check the source again before taking an acquisition step.
For an external provider's attempted registration, read UK domain backorders. For the process behind those attempts, read UK domain drop catching. Provider fees, deadlines and allocation rules must be established from the provider's current terms. DomainSabre does not accept a backorder through this list.
