A new legal regime for domain names has been operating in France since July 1, 2011.
The new provisions that relate to the status of top level domain names (TLD) in French national territories have been implemented in a law adopted on March 22, 2011. It introduces various provisions that are intended to implement EU regulations regarding health, labour and electronic communications (Official Journal of March 23, 2011).
These provisions replace Article L 45 of the Code des Postes et Télécommunications (Post and Telecommunications Code), which was declared contrary to the French constitution, and are composed of nine articles. The provisions are not innovative, but they are clearer than the previous version.
