The domain name should be an exact-match as written in the supporting Trademark documentation.
A Registered Trademark Holder whose trademark contains a space (i.e. is composed of more than one word) will be permitted to apply for their Trademark domain containing a hyphen instead of the space, as well as their Trademark domain containing no hyphens or spaces (e.g. my-company.eu or mycompany.eu).
A Public Body is able to apply for .eu domains that correspond with the full name of the Public Body or the acronym by which the Public Body is commonly known, or if applicable, the territory which is governed by the Public Body. 'Public Body' is understood to include: institutions and bodies of the Community, national and local governments, governmental bodies, authorities, organisations and bodies governed by public law, and international and intergovernmental organisations.
