.tz
The .tz domain extension is the official country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Tanzania. It's primarily used by companies and individuals with associations to Tanzania, such as businesses, personal blogs, forums, or non-profits operating in the country. The registration of .tz domain names is managed by the Tanzania Network Information Centre (tzNIC), and several categories, including .co.tz for companies and .ac.tz for academic institutions, have specific purposes. Thus, the .tz domain extension greatly contributes to the digital presence and identity of entities connected to Tanzania in the digital world.
