The Restena Foundation

The Restena Foundation manages the DNS (Domain Name System) infrastructure along with all the technical aspects concerning domain name registration, including IT systems and the related procedures. As such, it guarantees the availability of domain names under .lu from any point of the internet. In the early 2000s, due to software defects and security considerations, the registration of the then possible 2-character domain names was suspended. On one hand as the years have passed, these limitations have become obsolete, but on the other the need and recurring demand from corporations, institutions and individuals in favour of the registration of .lu domain names with 1 or 2 characters suiting their activities have become increasingly urgent. All indicators have therefore turned green allowing to open access to the registration of these domain names.
