The .ax domain was delegated to the Regional Government of Åland on June 21, 2006. Prior to this, Åland used the subdomain aland.fi. In early 2006, Finnish law was amended to allow .ax as a separate ccTLD, with a three-year transition period to phase out aland.fi. All existing aland.fi domain holders received equivalent .ax registrations. The domain uses the ISO 3166-1 code assigned to Åland in 2004, with 'x' chosen because other two-letter combinations were already taken.
