.al domains
The .AL extension is the Albanian territorial extension. This was created on 1992 and it's managed by akep.al. At first it was restricted to Albanian Companies, but now is possible to register albanian domains even for companies and individuals outside the country.
Domain Restrictions
Restricted to Albanian residents and corporations
For Albanian commercial organizations or foreign organizations with a permanent legal representative within Albania. Starting from the day of the registration of a domain name the “possessor” is allowed 15 days to make any possible changes/corrections of a spelling mistake on a registered domain name or information regarding the contacts. After the above mentioned period, the request for changes/corrections of a domain name is considered as a request for a new registration, and as a result has to be accompanied by an application form for a new registration.
