.cd domain extension

The .cd domain is the country code top level domain for the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is managed by the Office Congolais des Postes et Télécommunications, known as OCPT. As a ccTLD, .cd is primarily intended for entities connected to the DRC, though registration is generally open to anyone worldwide. There are no strict eligibility rules beyond standard domain registration requirements. The domain was first delegated in 1997 and underwent a redelegation in 2011 to its current operator. The registry website at nic.cd provides registration services and further information.

The .cd domain was originally delegated in 1997. In 2011, IANA approved a redelegation of the domain to the Office Congolais des Postes et Télécommunications, which remains the sponsoring organization today.
