Bangladesh Telecommunication Company Limited (BTCL) has officially launched the long-awaited .bd second-level domain, such as example.bd, to strengthen the country's IT and digital economy. The new domain system allows local entrepreneurs, startups, freelancers, and general users to register shorter, more appealing, and nationally representative domain names. Before the launch, BTCL held a three-month 'sunrise period' enabling existing .com.bd users to reserve their corresponding .bd domains, helping prevent name conflicts and cyber-squatting.
Alongside the domain rollout, BTCL introduced a transparent, technology-driven reseller system through which customers can purchase domains directly from approved resellers listed on BTCL’s website. The company issued several guidelines to ensure proper domain use, including restrictions on obscene or provocative names, bans on resale or leasing of domains, and priority allocation for government agencies. Disputes will be jointly resolved by BTCL and the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC).
Experts believe the initiative will make Bangladesh’s domain management more secure and internationally compliant, reinforcing the nation’s digital infrastructure and sovereignty.
