List of Internet top-level domains

    The following is a list of Internet top-level domains (TLDs). The top-level domain article provides the background information.

    The official list of all top-level domains is maintained by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).

    A number of proposed top-level domains are under consideration by ICANN/IANA.

    Name Entity Notes IDN DNSSEC
    .aero air-transport industry Must verify eligibility for registration; only those in various categories of air-travel-related entities may register. No No
    .asia Asia-Pacific region This is a TLD for companies, organizations, and individuals based in the region of Asia, Australia, and the Pacific. Yes Yes
    .biz business This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register; however, registrations may be challenged later if they are not held by commercial entities in accordance with the domain's charter. This TLD was created to provide relief for the wildly popular .com TLD. No Yes
    .cat Catalan This is a TLD for Web sites in the Catalan language or related to Catalan culture. Yes Yes
    .com commercial This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register. Though originally intended for use by for-profit business entities, for a number of reasons it became the "main" TLD for domain names and is currently used by all types of entities including nonprofits, schools and private individuals. Domain name registrations may be challenged if the holder cannot prove an outside relation justifying reservation of the name, to prevent "squatting". Yes Yes
    .coop cooperatives The .coop TLD is limited to cooperatives as defined by the Rochdale Principles. No No
    .info information This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register. Yes Yes
    .int international organizations The .int TLD is strictly limited to organizations, offices, and programs which are endorsed by a treaty between two or more nations. However, there are a few grandfathered domain names that do not meet these criteria. No No
    .jobs companies The .jobs TLD is designed to be added after the names of established companies with jobs to advertise. At this time, owners of a "company.jobs" domain are not permitted to post jobs of third party employers. No No
    .mobi mobile devices Must be used for mobile-compatible sites in accordance with standards. No No
    .museum museums Must be verified as a legitimate museum. Yes Yes
    .name individuals, by name This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register; however, registrations may be challenged later if they are not by individuals (or the owners of fictional characters) in accordance with the domain's charter. Yes No
    .net network This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register. Originally intended for use by domains pointing to a distributed network of computers, or "umbrella" sites that act as the portal to a set of smaller websites. No Yes
    .org organization This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register. Originally intended for use by non-profit organizations, and still primarily used by some. Yes Yes
    .post postal services The .post TLD is restricted to Postal Administrations as defined in the Universal Postal Union constitution, and their large customers who wish to provide "Trusted Postal Services". No Yes
    .pro professions Currently, .pro is reserved for licensed or certified professionals worldwide. A professional seeking to register a .pro domain must provide their registrar with the appropriate credentials. No No
    .tel Internet communication services A contact directory housing all types of contact information directly in the Domain Name System. Yes No
    .travel travel and tourism industry related sites Must be verified as a legitimate travel-related entity. No No

    USA top-level domains

    Name Entity Notes IDN DNSSEC
    .edu educational The .edu TLD is limited to specific educational institutions such as, but not limited to, primary schools, middle schools, secondary schools, colleges, and universities. In the US, its usability was limited in 2001 to post-secondary institutions accredited by an agency on the list of nationally recognized accrediting agencies maintained by the United States Department of Education. This domain is therefore almost exclusively used by US colleges and universities. Some institutions that do not meet the current registration criteria have grandfathered domain names. No Yes
    .gov governmental The .gov TLD is limited to governmental entities and agencies in the US. No Yes
    .mil US military The .mil TLD is limited to use by the US military. No Yes

    • Explanation: explanation of the code when not self-evident from the English name of the country
    • Notes: general remarks

    Proposed internationalized ccTLDs

    The following ccTLDs have been requested using a procedure known as IDN ccTLD Fast Track Process.

    DNS name IDN ccTLD Country Transliteration Script ccTLD  
    xn--90ae .бг  Bulgaria bg Bulgarian Cyrillic .bg String rejected
    xn--qxam .ελ  Greece el Greek .gr String rejected
    xn--4dbrk0ce ישראל.‎  Israel Israel Hebrew .il

    xn--q7ce6a .ລາວ  Laos Lao or Laao Lao .la  
    xn--mgbb7fyab ليبيا.‎  Libya Lībyā Arabic .ly  
    • ".ελ" was rejected because of its confusing similarity to .EA which is not a TLD but a reserved two letter string in the reserved ISO-3166 list. Much like the case of Bulgaria’s applied-for ".бг" and subsequent denial by the DNS SP, because of similarity to .br, Greece must wait until after the IDN cctld Fast Track Process before it can enjoy its own icctld.

    Test TLDs

    ICANN created a set of top-level Internationalized domain names in October 2007 for the purpose of testing the use of IDNA in the root zone and within those domains. They are expected to be available for a limited evaluation period. Each of these TLDs encodes a word meaning "test" in the respective language.

    Each of these domains contains only one site with the word example encoded in the respective script and language. These example.test sites are test wikis used by ICANN.
