Politie (.politie)

The .politie domain extension is a restricted generic top-level domain (gTLD) operated exclusively by Politie Nederland, the Dutch national police force. It was delegated in June 2016 to create a controlled online space for official police communications and services in the Netherlands. Registration under .politie is limited to the sponsor and its authorized entities. No outside registrations are allowed. This domain helps protect the public from phishing and impersonation by clearly marking police owned websites. Politie Nederland manages the domain as part of its digital strategy to ensure trust and authenticity for citizens interacting with law enforcement online. The domain uses its own WHOIS server and RDAP service for registry information.
