.lb is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Lebanon.

History

The Lebanese Domain Registry (LBDR) was established in 1993. It offered domains free of charge directly to registrants, without the use of a registrar model. Since February 1, 2021, they introduced a registrar model and registrants can't directly register their domains at the registry anymore. At the same time the registry also introduced a yearly fee for domains and removed the trademark requirement for registrants.[2] On July 13, 2023, ICANN took over the registry management of .lb in a caretaker role due to the death of the registry manager.[3] On January 21, 2024, ICANN approved the transfer of .lb to the new registry Internet Society Lebanon.[4]
