.bb is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Barbados. It is administered by Cable & Wireless (Barbados) Limited. Also available as:
- .bb
- .com.bb
- .edu.bb
- .gov.bb
- .net.bb
- .org.bb
The domain dispute policy appears to be patterned after the pre-2000 policy of Network Solutions, in which a trademark owner may challenge any domain, and if the registrant does not also have a trademark on the name it goes on hold and nobody can use it; the only way the registrant can regain use of a challenged domain is to file suit.
