.bd is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Bangladesh. It is administered by the Ministry of Posts, Telecommunications and Information Technology.
Registrations
Registrations are at the third level beneath several second-level labels, paralleling the oldest gTLDs; registration is open except in the gov and mil subdomains, which are limited to authorized entities in the Bangladesh government.
Though online registration is available, currently BTCL only allows Second-level domain registration of .bd domain for only Bangladeshi citizens.[1][2]
It only allows the structure of websites like - example.com.bd, example2.com.bd. example3.com.bd; but not like - example.bd, example2.bd, example3.bd.[3]
Top-level domains

Though the .bd domain was introduced on 20 May 1999, the Bangladesh Telecommunications Company Limited (BTCL) started registering for generals in 2003.[4]
.বাংলা
The .বাংলা ("Bangla") domain was introduced in 2011.[5] The BTCL started the process of assigning domain names for websites on 1 January 2017.[6]
