Hello @Fridrik - welcome to the Community!

In answer to your question, I believe it _is_ possible to create companies with the same domain but what you will want to make sure you do is _disable automated contact association._

Contacts and companies are associated based on a shared domain, so this will get tricky if you have multiple companies with the same domain. Check out how this process works and how you can disable it [here](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/articles/kcs_article/contacts/why-was-my-contact-automatically-associated-with-a-company-in-hubspot-crm).

I’d reccommend testing adding two companies with the same domain, before doing any mass import.

I’d also reccommend checking out the parent/child company feature. In HubSpot’s CRM, you have the ability to associate two companies in a parent-child relationship. To add a parent or child company to an existing company record in the CRM [check out this knowledge article](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/articles/kcs_article/companies/how-can-i-add-a-parent-or-child-company-to-an-existing-company-record).

I hope the above is of help to you, let me know how you get on with your test!
