.rs is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Serbia. The domain name registry that operates it is the Register of National Internet Domain Names of Serbia (RNIDS). The letters rs stand for Republic of Serbia (Serbian: Republika Srbija).

It is intended to be used with few restrictions, and it is widely used in Serbia. Because of English words ending with the letters "rs", this domain is also used in the construction of domain hacks.[1]

History

The ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency decided to allocate RS as the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code for Serbia IANA assigned .rs as ccTLD for this country.

The delegation of name servers by IANA started in September, 2007.[2] Registration of the .rs domain names commenced on 10 March 2008.

In 2007, ICANN also resolved[3] that the former .yu domain is to be operated temporarily by RNIDS, the operators of the new .rs domain registry, until its eventual abolition on or before 30 September 2009. This allowed a two-year transition period for existing .yu names to be transferred either to .rs for Serbia or .me for Montenegro. Finally, the .yu domain expired on 30 March 2010.[4]

Domain structure
