The .li domain extension is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Liechtenstein. Due to Liechtenstein’s close economic and customs union ties with Switzerland, the registry for this domain is managed by the same organisation – the Swiss company SWITCH – which also manages the .ch domain extension. The first .li domain names were registered in 1993.

Due to Liechtenstein’s small size, the number of .li domain names is considerably smaller than that of the ccTLD extensions of larger countries; nevertheless, it enjoys stable and steadily growing popularity, particularly amongst businesses with links to the region.
