About the .LC domain

What is the .LC domain?

.lc is the country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) of Saint Lucia, registered with IANA on September 3, 1991. It is a curious case of cross-border governance: the formal sponsoring organization is the University of Puerto Rico, while the registry's practical operation falls to NIC LC, creating an unusual academic link between two distinct Caribbean territories.

Registration imposes no significant restrictions: no residency, citizenship, specific documentation, company registered in Saint Lucia, or local administrative contact is required. Any type of entity, including non-profit organizations, can register a .lc domain. Names must be between 1 and 63 characters, made up only of letters, numbers, and hyphens (not starting or ending with a hyphen), and internationalized domain names (IDN) are not supported. The minimum registration period is one year.
