International Domain Registration
American Samoa (.as):
Restrictions: American Samoan domains, Domains may not be used for pornographic or racist material; registry has right of refusal for all applications
.as is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for American Samoa. It is administered by AS Domain Registry.
There is no restriction on the nationality of registrants, and many .as names are registered to and used by people, companies, and organizations with no connection to American Samoa. "AS" or "A/S" is a suffix indicating a joint stock company in some countries including Norway, Denmark and Czech Republic, so this TLD gets some use by companies of this sort.
