What is a ccTLD, and what is .ae?
• A country code Top Level Domain or ccTLDs are specific to individual countries around the world. Some examples of ccTLDs are ‘.ae’ for the United Arab Emirates, and ‘.au’ for Australia. A generic Top Level Domain (gTLD) is a top level domain name that is open to Registrants around the world. Domain names that end in .com, .net and .org are all gTLDs. If an internet address has .ae at the end of it, its registered in the United Arab Emirates and a part of the .ae domain space, which is regulated by the .aeDA.
