From nic.coop:

Who can register a .coop domain name?

Only cooperatives, cooperative service organizations and subsidiaries of cooperatives will be eligible to use the .coop domain name. It is the responsibility of dotCoop to ensure that organizations that register .coop names meet the .coop TLD Eligibility Criteria as noted below.

If you are not sure if your organization is eligible, please contact support@communicate.coop. Ineligible registrants forfeit the entire registration fee.
(Back to questions)

What are the .coop TLD Eligibility Criteria?

To be approved to register and use a .coop domain name, an applicant must qualify under at least one of the following criteria:

members of the National Cooperative Business Association (NCBA)if otherwise eligible;
members of the International Cooperative Alliance(ICA) if otherwise eligible;
organizations formed as and/or considered cooperatives under applicable local law;
associations comprised of cooperatives;
organizations that are committed to the seven cooperative principles;
organizations that are majority controlled by cooperatives;
entities whose operations are principally dedicated to serving cooperatives; and
for no more than 5,000 registrants, persons or entities whose use of a .coop domain name would, in the opinion of the DCLLC Board, advance the interests of the cooperative sector in general or would assist in the development of cooperatives worldwide.
