.et is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) assigned to Ethiopia. The letters "et" derive from the two-letter ISO 3166-1 code for the country.

Like other ccTLDs, .et is used for websites and email addresses associated with Ethiopian government agencies, businesses, and individuals. Registration and technical administration are governed by national domain management regulations.

Administration

Administration of .et is overseen by Ethiopian government telecommunications authorities. Administrative details and registration requirements are recorded in the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) registry, which maintains the authoritative record of top-level domain assignments.

UncertaintyThe exact name of the organization currently managing the .et registry and its official date of assignment cannot be fully verified here. Current information can be found in the IANA registry.

Second-level domains

Like many African ccTLDs, the .et registry uses a second-level domain structure, with categories for business, education, government, and non-profit organizations. Most users register third-level domain names beneath these categories.

Usage

Use of .et is more limited than global domains such as .com, depending on registration fees, application requirements, and local demand. Ethiopian government agencies and universities are the primary users.
