Is a .lc name registered?
Looked up from your browser in the registry's RDAP service; if that does not answer, in DNS. Nothing is stored on dnssec.in.What this means
The root zone holds a DS record for .lc, so the extension is signed and anchored. A domain under .lc can use DNSSEC with a full chain of trust: it needs to be signed at its DNS host and have its own DS at the registrar. .lc is the country code for Saint Lucia; its registry sets who can register.
Second-level suffixes under .lc (6)
You can register names directly under .lc or under these suffixes, for example example.co.lc. Some are restricted to certain users (government, education, banks). Source: the Public Suffix List.
- .co.lc
- .com.lc
- .edu.lc
- .gov.lc
- .net.lc
- .org.lc
IDN names under .lc
No IDN tables for .lc at IANA: names are usually ASCII only (a–z, 0–9 and hyphen).
Length
DNS limits are the same everywhere: each label is 1 to 63 characters, the whole name at most 253, letters, digits and hyphens, not starting or ending with a hyphen. IDN labels count their xn-- form, so fewer native characters fit. A registry can set a higher minimum (often 2 or 3 characters) or reserve short names: that is in its own policy.
WHOIS and RDAP
This extension is not in IANA's RDAP list. There is no classic WHOIS server (port 43): since January 2025 ICANN lets gTLD registries offer RDAP only.
Lifecycle and drop
Country code extensions set their own lifecycle: grace periods, redemption and release dates differ from country to country and are not covered by ICANN's gTLD policies. Read the registry's rules: http://www.nic.lc.
