description: Enhanced domains are the current version of My Domain that meets the latest browser requirements. With enhanced domains, all URLs across your org contain your company-specific My Domain name, including URLs for your Experience Cloud sites, Salesforce Sites, Visualforce pages, and content files. This feature changed domain suffixes (the part after the My Domain name) to meet the latest security standards. With no instance names, enhanced My Domain URLs are easier for users to remember and don’t change when your org is moved to another Salesforce instance. Because enhanced domains meet the latest browser requirements, this feature was enforced in Winter ’24.

# Enhanced Domains

Enhanced domains are the current version of My Domain that meets the latest browser requirements. With enhanced domains, all URLs across your org contain your company-specific My Domain name, including URLs for your Experience Cloud sites, Salesforce Sites, Visualforce pages, and content files. This feature changed domain suffixes (the part after the My Domain name) to meet the latest security standards. With no instance names, enhanced My Domain URLs are easier for users to remember and don’t change when your org is moved to another Salesforce instance. Because enhanced domains meet the latest browser requirements, this feature was enforced in Winter ’24.

For a full list of URL formats and URL format changes when you deploy enhanced domains, see [My Domain URL Format Changes with Enhanced Domains Deployment](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.domain_name_url_format_changes_enable_enhanced.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Understand how login and application URL formats changed when enhanced domains, the latest version of My Domain, were deployed. These changes apply only to orgs created in June 2022 or earlier.").

- **[Why Enhanced Domains](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.domain_name_enhanced_why.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    When you deploy enhanced domains, most of the application URLs for your Salesforce org change. Those changes require testing and impact public links, such as Experience Cloud sites. Understand why Salesforce requires that all customers adopt this new standard, and learn how enhanced domains meet the latest browser requirements.
- **[Enhanced Domains Timeline](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.domain_name_enhanced_timeline.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    To prevent disruption for your customers and users, review the enhanced domains timeline and prepare for upcoming changes. Redirections for legacy host names stopped in production and demo orgs in Spring ’26. And in Winter ’27, Salesforce ends support for API traffic that uses an incorrect instanced URL.
- **[Considerations for Enhanced Domains](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.domain_name_enhanced_considerations.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Before you enable and deploy enhanced domains, understand the prerequisites. Learn about how URLs, including public-facing URLs, change across your org with enhanced domains. Review recommendations for preserving access to your org during the change, learn about redirections, and understand how enhanced domains improve your Experience Cloud sites.
