.scot is a GeoTLD for Scotland and Scottish culture, including the Gaelic and Scots languages.[2]
In 2008 dotCYMRU, dotEUS, dotSCOT and dotBZH formed ECLID[clarification needed]. Later it was decided to allow newly proposed top-level domains for introduction some time in 2013, and a list of applications for these was published in June 2012; the domain .scot was included.[3]
On 27 January 2014, dotScot Registry, a not-for-profit organization established in 2009, announced that it had agreed terms to operate the .scot domain name, with plans to get it up and running later in summer of 2014.[4]
On 15 July 2014, .scot was officially launched.[5] The first .scot domain name to go live was calico.scot, registered by hosting company Calico Internet Ltd.[5]
On 17 February 2015, the Scottish Government migrated its website from scotland.gov.uk to gov.scot.[6][7] Likewise, the Scottish Parliament moved from scottish.parliament.uk to parliament.scot in May 2016,[8] to coincide with the 2016 elections.[9]
The 2017 Global Amendment to the base New GeoTLD Registry Agreement is effective as of 31 July 2017.[10]
On 3 May 2018 the dotScot Registry lifted registration restrictions on locality domains (based on towns, etc.) and other premium names.[11]
