## ccTLDs

### .nl

Netherlands national ccTLD, administered by SIDN.

- Eligibility: No nationality requirement. Registrants without a Dutch postal address must designate an admin contact reachable at a Dutch address — most non-Dutch registrars provide this as part of the registration, or accept the registrant's own NL contact if present.
- Notes: SIDN was an early DNSSEC adopter; signing rates on .nl are among the highest of any ccTLD. WHOIS is GDPR-redacted for natural persons.
