.sg is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Singapore. It was first registered in September 1988.² It is administered by the Singapore Network Information Centre (SGNIC).² Registrations are processed via accredited registrars.

In 2011, two new internationalized country code top-level domains were registered for Singapore, intended for domain names in the local languages. These domains are .新加坡 (encoded as .xn--yfro4i67o) for Chinese websites, and .சிங்கப்பூர் (encoded as .xn--clchc0ea0b2g2a9gcd), for Tamil websites.³

SGNIC requires that all .sg domains registered after 2 May 2013 have proof of Singaporean presence. This is facilitated by requiring the registrant to login to the Verified@SG portal with their SingPass account.⁴
