Mission & Goals
AFNIC is the French Internet registry, public service delegation in charge of managing the French domain name registry (.fr and other ccTLDs) and French network information center. Afnic pursue this mission by constantly improving our technical infrastructure, developing new tools, and contributing to the influence of an internet made in France. Because the .fr ccTLD is a public good, AFNIC’s role is considered one of general interest, consisting in contributing on a daily basis to a secure and stable internet; open to innovation; in which the French internet community plays a leading role. The Board of Trustees is composed, by statute, of ten members: five representatives appointed by the founding members: two for Inria and one each for the ministries concerned (Electronic Communications, Industry and Research); and five member representatives, elected by the General Assembly.
