The .cx domain was delegated on April 24, 1997, by USC-ISI (then performing IANA functions) to Karinna Love of Planet Three Ltd. in the UK. In 2006, after a formal redelegation process endorsed by the Christmas Island Shire Council and the Australian government, management was transferred to Christmas Island Domain Administration Limited (CXDA). This ensured local oversight and aligned the domain with the interests of the island’s residents.
