What are the registration requirements for .CR domains?

There is no requirement or restriction when buying a “.CR” or “.CO.CR” domain suffix.

What does .CR stand for?

.CR refers to the official domain extension or internet country code top level domain (ccTLD) of Costa Rica. “.CR” is the primary ccTLD which is intended for entities wishing to establish connection with Costa Rica. On the other hand, “.co.cr” is the secondary ccTLD which is intended for commercial use. Registry and administration for this extension code is being carried out by NIC-Internet Costa Rica.
CR can also be defined in other ways. It is a popular abbreviation for credit (accounting) or copyright (business). CR is also used as initials for carriage return (military), congressional road (government), compression ratio (mathematics), conversion rate (foreign currencies), or clinical record (medical). In Chemistry, CR is the symbol of the chemical element Chromium. CR is also the official two-letter code for the country Costa Rica.

Why register a .CR domain?

Today, the booming industries of IT services, medical manufacturing, and exportation of electronics contributed to the country’s high standard of living and economic stability. Foreign companies and entrepreneurs are interested in making investments in Costa Rica because of multiple factors.
