.eu

domaine de premier niveau de l'Union européenne

AI overview

".eu" is the internet domain name for the European Union, available since 2005 for individuals, companies, and organizations based in EU member states and certain nearby countries like Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein. It matters because it provides a way for European entities to establish an online presence with a domain that signals their EU connection, similar to how ".com" or country-specific domains like ".de" work.
