.tf is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the French Southern and Antarctic Lands (France). Along with .fr and .re, it is administered by AFNIC. Before October 23, 2004, Adamsnames, based in Cambridge, administered this TLD.
There is also an additional free service offering third-level .tf domains, under the name United Names Organisation. They occupy 14 second-level domains, including .eu.tf, .us.tf, .net.tf, and .edu.tf. They are run by the same company as smartdots.com, and are given away as URL redirections.
Part of this territory, according to the French government, is a section of the continent of Antarctica claimed by France. This creates an overlap between the territory of .tf and the Antarctica domain .aq.
