Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a gTLD and a ccTLD?
gTLDs are generic top-level domains, while ccTLDs are assigned to countries or territories. Eligibility rules differ per TLD.
What does DNSSEC support mean?
It means the TLD supports DNSSEC signing. Whether it is actually enabled depends on each domain's configuration.
Is this information up to date?
TLD and registry information is sourced from public data such as IANA. Eligibility rules can change, so please also check each registry's official information for the latest details.
