.мкд (romanized as .mkd; abbreviation of ; Punycode .xn--d1alf) is the internationalized Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for North Macedonia. It is administered by The Macedonian Academic Research Network (MARnet). In November 2012, MARnet announced that the agency was planning to introduce a national Cyrillic domain. Additionally, the agency started with the process of gathering proposals from the Macedonian citizens about the form of the domain which will be applied for official registration.

The call started on 19 November 2012 and ended on 3 December 2012. The Cyrillic domain proposal had to contain letters of the country's name. On 3 December, MarNet chose six proposals (.мкд, .мак, .македонија, .рмкд, .рм and .рмак). In the second phase of the process, citizens voted for the final Macedonian Cyrillic domain. The winning proposal was officially announced in January 2013.
