The
new order of registration of .ee TLD became available on 5 July 2010. Estonian Internet Foundation took over .ee
ccTLD
registry functions from EENet. All existing domains registered before the transition had to be re-registered during a 6 month transition period which ended on 5 January 2011. New
.ee
domain rules allow unlimited number of domains to be registered by a single entity. Private persons can now register domains directly under .ee. Foreign entities can now register .ee domains although all domains must have an administrative contact with residence
in
Estonia. Domain disputes will be handled
by
Domain Disputes Committee. Registration services can be done through accredited registrars listed on Estonian Internet Foundation
[http://www.

website
].
Domains can be registered
and
renewed for
one,
two or three years
