'''.tc''' is the [[Internet]] [[country code]] [[top-level domain]] ([[ccTLD]]) for [[Turks and Caicos Islands]]. Since T.C. also stands for ''Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'' ([[Turkey|Republic of Türkiye]]), the domain is used by some Turkish sites as well. The .tc TLD was registered in January 1997.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.iana.org/domains/root/db/tc.html|title=IANA — .tc Domain Delegation Data|website=www.iana.org|access-date=2018-11-22}}</ref>
