Updating Vercel internal Public Suffix List for sol.site subdomain verification

Current Behavior

When users try to add a subdomain under sol.site (e.g., abc.sol.site) to their Vercel project, they get the error:

:warning:

Error: This domain is linked to another Vercel account. To use it with this project, add a TXT record at _vercel.sol.site to verify ownership.

Users are asked to verify at _vercel.sol.site, which they don’t have access to — because they only own the subdomain, not the root domain.

Expected Behavior

Vercel should recognize sol.site as a public suffix (like github.io or netlify.app) and allow each subdomain (e.g., abc.sol.site) to be added independently without root domain verification.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Go to a Vercel project → SettingsDomains
  2. Add a subdomain like abc.sol.site
  3. Vercel shows “Verification Needed” and requires a TXT record at _vercel.sol.site

sol.site is already listed in the official Public Suffix List:
https://github.com/publicsuffix/list/blob/main/public_suffix_list.dat

It appears Vercel’s internal PSL copy has not yet been updated to reflect this.

Project Information

sol.site is operated by SNS (Solana Name Service), a Web3 naming platform on the Solana blockchain. We issue .sol.site subdomains to independent, mutually-untrusting users — the exact use case the PSL was designed for. Our domain has been reviewed and merged into the PSL.

We kindly request that Vercel refresh its internal PSL so sol.site is properly recognized. Thank you!

The domain troubleshooting guide can help with most custom domain configuration issues. You might be able to use that guide to solve it before a human is available to help you. Then you can come back here and share the answer for bonus points.

You can also use v0 to narrow down the possibilities.

Hi @0xwinnie, welcome to the Vercel Community!

Thanks for reporting it. I’ll request this internally and update here.

Hey @anshumanb any updates on the internal request to update Vercel’s PSL? I blocked from deploying to their sol.site domains on Vercel. :broken_heart:
