A '''country code second-level ___domain''' ('''ccSLD)''') is a [[second-level ___domain]] to a [[country code top-level ___domain]].{{citation needed|date=December 2010}} A ccSLD may be reserved by the [[___domain name registry]] for the registration of third-level domains or assigned to a third party as a [[subdomain]].

Many country code ___domain registries implement ___domain name classes at the second level underneath their ccTLD, such as are present in the original generic [[top-level ___domain]]s <tt>com</tt>, <tt>net</tt>, and <tt>org</tt>, which were intended for commercial entities, network operators, and non-profit organizations, respectively.
