{{mono|.pl}} is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Poland, administered by NASK, the Polish research and development organization. It is one of the founding members of CENTR.

History

The {{mono|.pl}} domain was created in 1990, following the mitigation of the COCOM embargo on technological collaboration with post-communist countries. The first subdomain in {{mono|.pl}} was {{mono|.pwr.pl}}, belonging to the Wrocław University of Technology.

In 2008 the number of registered .pl domain names exceeded one million, whereas at the end of 2013 the registry comprised more than 2.4 million domain names.{{cite web|title=Statistics of domain names registered in NASK|url=https://www.dns.pl/en/statistics/number_of_active_names_in_DNS_zone|access-date=1 June 2018|website=dns.pl}}
