.il is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) of Israel, administered by the Israel Internet Association and managed by NIC - ISRAEL which hosts the DNS root server and manages the Israeli Internet Exchange, that supports IPv4 and IPv6.[1][2]
The .il top-level domain is one of the earliest registered ccTLDs. When Israel registered it, on 24 October 1985,[1] it was the third registration of any ccTLD, after .us[3] and .uk,[4] which were registered earlier that year.
As of 19 August 2023 there are 285,060 domain names registered under the .il ccTLD in Israel.[5]
Top-level domains in Hebrew script
On 19 May 2020, ICANN approved the use of the ישראל. domain,[6][7] that was proposed in 2012.[8] It was delegated on 11 February 2021, and since 22 November 2022 it is possible to register domain names in full Hebrew script.[9]
Unlike the structure of .il, domain names registered under Script error: No such module "Lang".. may be either directly at second-level (for example: Script error: No such module "Lang".) or at third-level under one of these second-level domains:[10]
אקדמיה.ישראל.: Academic institutions; equivalent to .ac.il.ממשל.ישראל.: Government and Governmental System; equivalent to .gov.il.צהל.ישראל.: Israel Defense Forces; equivalent to .idf.il.ישוב.ישראל.: Municipal Government; equivalent to .muni.il.
There will not be a Hebrew-script equivalent to these second-level domains:
.co.il.org.il.k12.il.net.il
As a more private initiative the top-level domain Script error: No such module "Lang". ("com") was registered by VeriSign in 2016. It has as of 2020 many thousand second-level domains, mostly in Hebrew script, some in Latin script.
Script error: No such module "anchor".Second-level domains
Domain names ending with .il will always be in the third level under one of these second-level domains:[11]
.ac.il: Academic Institutions; administration delegated to the Inter-University Computation Center..co.il: Commercial Entities; administration delegated to five private registrars..org.il: Non-commercial Organizations; administration delegated to five private registrars..net.il: Israeli Internet service providers; available only to licensed providers by the Israel Internet Association..k12.il: Schools and Kindergartens.gov.il: Government and Governmental System; administration delegated to Ministry of Finance..muni.il: Municipal Government.idf.il: Israel Defense Forces; administration delegated to the army's Center of Computing and Information Systems.
Registration of other second-level domain names directly under .il is not supported.
Hebrew third level domains such as איגוד-האינטרנט.org.il are available since 2010.[12]
