.cl is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Chile.

History

It was created in 1987 and is administered by the University of Chile.

Since April 2011, it supports DNSSEC.

Registration

Registration of second-level domains under this TLD is open to anyone, as established by the current regulation since December 2013, which eliminated the requirement for foreign registrants to have a local contact with a RUN, the Chilean national ID number.

Registration of names including accented letters (á, é, í, ó, ú), ñ and ü was opened up in 2005.

IPv6 support

In the Hurricane Electric report from May 2012, it appears as IPv6 enabled domain and with nameservers in IPv6.

Domain hack

Microsoft used it in a domain hack for its social networking service so.cl.

Oracle Corporation used the domain hack ora.cl as a URL shortening
