The .no project started being referred to as Norid in 1996, which stands for Norwegian service for registration of Internet domain names. In 1998, the advisory body Norpol was formed, and in 1999, Norid operations were transferred from UNINETT to the newly-formed subsidiary, UNINETT FAS AS. Later in 1999, the [[registrar]] system was introduced. As of March 2001, 100000 domain names were registered, after a spike caused by the liberalization of domain name rules. In 2003, UNINETT Norid AS was established as a subsidiary under UNINETT. In 2004, domain name rules were liberalized yet again, and by March of that year, 200000 domains were registered.

In 2002, Norid participated in a working group under Norway's Ministry of Transport and Communications, where proposal was created for formalizing the administrative model for the .no domain. The proposal was implemented in 2003 through a Domain Regulation, which in addition to RFC1591, specifies the framework for administration of the .no domain. The model is shown in the diagram below.<ref name="study">[https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/eurid-middle-east-dns-study-initial-13oct15-en.pdf MEAC DNS Study], ICANN.org.

==Registry Policies==
The following matrix was developed by NORID, the .no registry, in 2005 and has served the entire ccTLD community to understand how certain policies might considerably contribute to the TLD uptake.<ref name="study"></ref>
The axes show the correlation and impact of two central aspects that shape the domain name policy:
* Requirements for the applicant
** Provide documentation that he has a right to the name
** Have a local presence in the area of the ccTLD
** Be an organisation
* Number of domain names allowed per applicant
** Limited/Unlimited
