ANINF (Agence Nationale des Infrastructures Numériques et des Fréquences) is the registry responsible for managing Gabon's .GA domain. In 2013, ANINF delegated the commercialization of .ga to Freenom, which offered the extension for free to users worldwide. This model led to significant abuse and poor reputation for the TLD.
In 2023, ANINF ended its collaboration with Freenom and fully reclaimed control of the domain. With the support of Afnic for technical operations, the registry now enforces stricter policies. New .ga registrations are no longer available to the general public, and domain names are reserved for entities with a real connection to Gabon. The free model has been discontinued, and existing domains are being reviewed under the new framework.
