The .es extension is Spain’s country code top-level domain. It was delegated in 1988, and its registry is operated by Red.es. To date, more than 1.5 million .es domain names are registered.

The .es domain is open to anyone to register. It’s a good choice if you want to reach Spanish customers, advertise accommodation, services or an online shop in Spain, or create content specifically for an audience in Spain.
