.ch

Switzerland

Country Code

Overview

The letters in .ch derive from Confoederatio Helvetica, the Latin name for the Swiss confederation used on the country's coinage and official documents to avoid privileging any of its four national languages. SWITCH Information Technology Services has administered the registry since 1987, and approximately 2.4 million domains are registered. Registration is open to applicants anywhere, and some international registrants adopt it for the associations Swiss provenance carries in banking, watchmaking, and pharmaceuticals.
