Internet TLD | .uk<ref group="nb">.uk was allocated for the purpose of a top-level domain (ccTLD) for the United Kingdom before the standardisation of ccTLDs along the line of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2. .gb, which conforms with the ISO code for the United Kingdom, was introduced later, alongside .uk. However, .gb has since been deprecated in favour of .uk. The .eu domain is shared with other European Union member states.</ref> |
