IRNIC is the entity that registers, manages and sells Iranian ccTLDs (.ir) and its IDN ccTLD,[1] it is associated with the country's Institute for Research in Fundamental Science.[2] The organization has been involved in presenting their perspective on ICANN's IDN programs and its general participation in the Middle East.[3]

The registry was founded in 1994, but there was little activity until 2000. The registry was reorganized in September 2001.[4]

In December 2003 new liberalized registration rules were instituted and a Dispute Resolution Policy went into effect. Since then the number of registrations has been doubling every year. Presently there are over 95,000 registrations.[4]
