.mn is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Mongolia. It is administered by Datacom. The domain name is composed of the consonants in the first syllable of the country name.
Some second-level domains are reserved for special use, such as:
- .gov.mn - government institutions
- .edu.mn - educational institutions
- .org.mn - non-profit organisations
The U.S. state of Minnesota also makes limited use of the domain, such as mapping www.leg.state.mn.us, the site for the Minnesota State Legislature, to www.leg.mn with a CNAME record.
The registry doesn't generally require specific second-level domains. As of 2006, the registry doesn't yet support Internationalized domain names.
