What is .ch domain?

The .ch domain is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Switzerland. It was first introduced in 1987 and is managed by SWITCH, the Swiss academic and research network.

The .ch domain is open for registration to anyone worldwide, but domain name registration must be done through a registrar accredited by SWITCH.

The .ch domain is commonly used by individuals, businesses, and organizations based in Switzerland or those targeting Swiss audiences. It is also used by entities that have a connection to the Swiss culture and country.

The registration fee and renewal fee for .ch domains varies depending on the registrar used and the length of the registration period. The maximum registration period is currently 10 years.

Registrants of .ch domains must comply with the rules and regulations set by SWITCH, which include technical requirements, compliance with local laws and regulations, and restrictions on the use of certain domain names.
