'''.mh''' is the [[Internet]] [[country code]] [[top-level domain]] ([[ccTLD]]) for the [[Marshall Islands]].<ref>{{cite book|title=The World Factbook| date=April 14, 2024 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=slKItm5G5K8C&pg=PA332|publisher=Central Intelligence Agency|page=332}}</ref> Its registry website has been inactive since the end of 2021, and prior to that had not been updated since 1997. The mechanism of registering domains listed on that site involved downloading an [[InterNIC]] template form that had been a [[Link rot|dead link]] for at least several years. 

{{As of|2021}}, a search showed three active websites using a .mh domain: one for the government's Natural Disaster Management Office, one for the school system, and one for a telecommunications company. The Natural Disaster Management Office website went offline a year later. In 2022, the Office of Commerce, Investment & Tourism created a site under the domain, but moved to [[.org]] in late 2023. The same year, Wahoo, a store based in [[Majuro]], opened a website under the domain.

Most of the people who govern a site from the Marshall Islands usually register it under [[.com]], [[.net]] or .org. Almost all sites registered to entities in the Marshall Islands are hosted in other countries.
