About the .NF domain

What is the .NF domain?

.nf is the country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) of Norfolk Island, an Australian external territory in the Pacific, registered with IANA on March 18, 1996, and managed by Norfolk Island Data Services.

Registration imposes no residency, citizenship, local company, or administrative contact requirements in the territory: anyone or any legally recognized organization can register a .nf domain, allocated on a strict first-come, first-served basis. The holder must be an identifiable individual over 18 or a legally recognized entity, and must use the domain in good faith in accordance with Australian and international law, with no illegal, indecent, obscene, or pornographic content. Despite the lack of formal access restrictions, this extension's price is notably higher than most ccTLDs, which has considerably limited its real adoption in practice.
