Changing or registering nameservers for a .dk domain

If you wish to point your .dk domain to Hostinger’s nameservers or existing nameservers with another hosting provider, you will need to update the nameservers via the Punktum.dk self-service area. Use the following URL in your browser, replacing DOMAIN.DK with your domain name:

https://selvbetjening.dk-hostmaster.dk/domain/DOMAIN.DK/change_name_server
.dk self-service page with DOMAIN.DK highlighted in the browser address bar

Using custom nameservers

To use custom nameservers or child nameservers with your domain, they must be registered before use. Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to DK Hostmaster’s self-service panel.

  2. Enter the required nameserver details with any additional information requested.

The registry will send a confirmation link to the email address provided in the technical contact details.

To check the current status of your domain and its nameservers, use the Search .dk domain tool.

If you encounter difficulties with registering custom nameservers, please reach out to Punktum.dk via this form: Contact .dk. Once you activate your .dk domain through Punktum.dk, you can manage its nameservers from DK Hostmaster. For requirements that apply to all domains, see Domain registration requirements at Hostinger.
