CentralNic is an internet domain name registrar. Currently, they are the domain registration operator for the .la ccTLD; these are techincally domain names meant for Laos, though the company markets them as being Los Angeles domains.[4] Their headquarters is located in London, Great Britain.

Unlike traditional registrars, CentralNic owns some very short (2 letter) domain names, against which it sells third level names. They also have a worldwide network of over 1500 registrars.[5]

CentralNic has recently launched Dot Brand Solutions [1], a service aimed at empowering CMOs, Brand Managers and Digital Marketing Executives to acquire, launch and manage their .brand TLDs.
