.sc

Also known as dot sc

.sc is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Seychelles. The TLD was previously also marketed to businesses in Scotland and the U.S. state of South Carolina, although the domains are subject to Seychelles registry rules. While SCregistrars, a company which marketed .sc domains to a target audience of Scottish sites, has since closed down, the .sc extension remains available through the Afilias Global platform via various well-known registrars internationally for direct registration at second-level.

AI overview

".sc" is the Internet domain extension officially assigned to Seychelles, though it has also been marketed to businesses and websites in Scotland and South Carolina. While it remains available for registration through major domain registrars worldwide, all .sc domains are governed by Seychelles' registry rules regardless of where the website owner is located.
