.fr and China ICP filing
.fr is not on the extension list in China’s MIIT “Chinese Internet domain name system” page. Alibaba Cloud’s filing guide says suffixes not on the list cannot be used for ICP filing and that the registrar must also be approved by MIIT; being listed is a precondition only, not a guarantee that filing succeeds.

FAQ
What is the cheapest .fr registration right now?
As of 2026-10-16, among the 39 registrars covered and ranked in the snapshot unified basis (not counting coupons; original currency listed per row), the cheapest .fr registration is US$5.60 €4.99 at OVHcloud; renewal US$6.55 at Dynadot; lowest 3-year cost US$19.65 at Dynadot (3-year cost = registration + list-price renewal × 2, taxes excluded). Display currency defaults to USD and is switchable; displayed values are converted references.
How is the 3-year cost for .fr calculated?
3-year cost = registration + renewal × 2 in a unified currency basis (CNY at the snapshot fx version). Taxes excluded; renewals for years 2–3 are estimated at current prices and not guaranteed; promo prices shown separately with their own conditions.
Where does the .fr data come from and how fresh is it?
Daily snapshots of the nazhumi.com open API across all quoting registrars. Page version: 2026-10-16 17:12 UTC. Failed per-suffix rounds keep the last published quote and are marked stale.
How much does a .fr renewal cost, and is it the same as the first year?
On list prices, the lowest first-year .fr quote is from OVHcloud: US$5.60 for the first year and US$8.74 to renew, so renewal is about 1.6× the first-year price. Across 38 registrars quoting both prices, the median renewal-to-first-year multiple is about 1×. Because the first-year and renewal prices differ, compare on the 3-year cost; the registrar states the exact terms of any offer. Amounts are converted at the snapshot rate; the registrar's own page is authoritative.

Who runs .fr?

Does the root zone publish a DS record for .fr?
