Wanted to move away from Namecheap for quite some time tried some other registrars but not really happy (e.g. Porkbun) (Moved all my DNS to BunnyCDN at least).

I need PDF invoices with VAT/VAT-excemption sent to me for business reasons. Most have only an HTML which often gets wrangled with Print-to-PDF. Some don't have invoices at all :-(

[Edit] Got a comment on Reddit to try inwx.de - moved one domain, they seem to have PDF invoices in mail, 90s UI (which is a good thing ;-) and very technical status update messages (which is also a good thing)

Thanks, does OVH send these invoices or do you need to log in?

I get a link by email, the PDF has to be retrieved from the web portal.

That PDF has my name and address at the top though.

I recently tried cloudflare domains and it works well, does what I need. On PC I can download the invoice as pdf.

Cloudflare forces you to use their dns. You can’t use route 53, for example. Which is shitty with domain transfer cool off periods.

Curious re Porkbun, what were the negative aspects of your experience?

No PDF invoices at that time.
