Information

The .br domain is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) assigned to Brazil in the ISO-3166 standard. The Brazilian Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br) manages and oversees the operations of this ccTLD, with Nic.br serving as its executive arm. Responsible for coordinating the allocation of Autonomous System Numbers (ASN), IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, as well as the registration and maintenance of .br domain names, Registro.br provides back-end registry solutions. The use of a local postal address and a two-letter state code are requirements for registering a .br domain, indicating that the user is a resident, citizen, or legal entity based in Brazil.

Restrictions

The registration of a .br domain comes with certain restrictions. Legal presence in Brazil is mandatory for individuals or entities seeking to secure a .br domain. This means that the registrant must be a resident, citizen, or a legal entity based within the country's borders. Additionally, a valid local postal address and a two-letter state code are necessary for registration. There has been ongoing debate regarding Bulgaria's application to include its .бг in the IDN ccTLD Fast track process due to concerns over potential confusion with the Latin alphabet .br domain. ICANN has rejected Bulgaria's application on multiple occasions, citing graphic similarity between the two domains as a concern. However, it is important to note that these restrictions do not apply to the registration of Bulgarian domains using the Cyrillic script (e.g., компания.бг) and are specific to the .br domain registration requirements.
