.aq is the ccTLD for Antarctica. The letters "aq" come from the French name "Antarctique". It is managed by Antarctica Network Information Centre Limited. [1]
Rules[edit | edit source]
The .aq domain is for bodies managing work in Antarctica. A physical presence is needed for .aq domain registration. The .aq domain is available to government organizations who are signatories of the Antarctic Treaty. A .aq domain name is also available to registrants who have a physical presence in Antarctica. This included unattended installations owned or operated by the registrant, and short term visits by the registrant or its employees. Plus, a letter signed by the officer in charge of the base or expedition is needed.[2]
