Since October 1997 the .af domain exists as Internet country code top-level domain of Afghanistan. Initially a private individual from Kabul managed the registration of the .af domain, only a few orders have been processed. In the course of the Afghan civil war, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) lost contact with this person, whereupon the registration of new domains was stopped and is possible again since 2002.
Any interested Internet users around the world can buy and register a personal .af domain on the second level - domain orders at third level are reserved for citizens and companies in Afghanistan.
