The ccTLD, or country code top-level domain, .cc represents the Cocos (Keeling) Islands. This small archipelago is a non-self-governing territory of Australia, consisting of 27 coral atolls and an approximate population of under 600 people. The ccTLD was implemented in 1997 and is considered open use, meaning it can be registered by anyone, regardless of their connection to the islands. The manager for the .cc TLD is eNIC Cocos (Keeling) Islands Pty. Ltd., a subsidiary of Verisign, granted authority by the Australian government. With over one million registrations, .cc is among the top 50 ccTLDs in terms of active registrations.
There are no specific restrictions on owning or registering a domain under the .cc TLD. As an open use ccTLD, it can be registered by anyone, regardless of their geographical location or connection to the Cocos (Keeling) Islands. However, given its popularity and high number of registrations, disputes over trademark infringement are common in the .cc domain. It is among the top ten ccTLDs in terms of WIPO proceedings. Prospective registrants should ensure they do not infringe on existing trademarks to avoid potential disputes.
