.ir is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Iran. It is managed by the Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences.
In 2014 a US court awarded a group of American and Israeli victims of Iranian terror the rights to the domain, along with Iran’s IP addresses being utilized by the Iranian government and its agencies.[1][2]
Second-level domains
- .ir – public[citation needed]
- .ac.ir – academic (tertiary education and research establishments) and learned societies.
- .co.ir – commercial/companies
- .gov.ir – government (Islamic Republic of Iran)
- .id.ir – personal, everyone has a National Number from Islamic Republic of Iran
- .net.ir – ISPs and network companies approved by IRTCT
- .org.ir – non-profit organisations
- .sch.ir – schools, primary and secondary education
Persian domains
Persian internationalized domain names are available for registration under .ایران.ir for public, in the Persian script.[3]
In 2010, ICANN approved IRNIC's proposal for the ایران. IDN ccTLD (representing the Persian spelling of Iran), pending the final step of String Delegation[clarification needed].[4]
Domain hacks
The URL "ryana.ir" is a redirect to the budget airline website ryanair.com. It is used as a typing shortcut. Some internet users may mistakenly believe that .ir is the ccTLD for the Republic of Ireland, the home country of Ryanair (which is actually .ie).[original research?]
The URL "renmark.ir" is a redirect to the Investor Relations firm Renmark Financial Communications Inc. The .ir in this instance would stand for Investor Relations.
Testbeds
- .dnssec.ir – limited term testbed for DNSSEC support
