About the .LT domain

What is the .LT domain?

.lt is the country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) of Lithuania, registered with IANA on June 3, 1992. Management falls to Kaunas University of Technology (KTU), through its Internet Service Centre, which operates the registry via the DOMREG platform and accredits the registrars that process applications — another case, like .lv or .gr, of a ccTLD managed by an academic institution.

Since its liberalization in 2000, .lt has maintained an open registration policy: individuals and legal entities from any country in the world can register it with no residency or citizenship restrictions. No local administrative contact in Lithuania is required. The only genuine technical requirement is that the requested domain's nameservers be accessible and correctly configured before completing registration, a requirement similar to that of other ccTLDs like .cz or .af.
