.sm domain extension

.sm is the country code top level domain for San Marino, the small landlocked republic surrounded by Italy. It is managed by Telecom Italia San Marino S.p.A., which also handles registration services through its NIC at nic.sm. There are no publicly listed eligibility restrictions for registering a .sm domain, though as a ccTLD it may require a local presence or contact. The domain is open to registrants worldwide, but applicants should check with the registry for any specific rules. The TLD was delegated in August 1995, making it one of the earlier country code domains. San Marino itself is one of the oldest surviving sovereign states, and its domain reflects that heritage.

The .sm domain was registered in the IANA root zone on 16 August 1995. It has been operated by Telecom Italia San Marino since its inception.
