.hk

.hk is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Hong Kong. It was created in 1990.

Until 2004 there were very few second-level domains under .hk, as it was normally only possible to register third-level domains. The following are the main second-level domains:

.com.hk – commercial entities

.edu.hk – educational institutions

.gov.hk – government

.idv.hk – individuals

.net.hk – network service providers

.org.hk – non-profit organizations

However, as of 2004 it became possible to register second-level .hk domains, so these will soon become common.
