On Monday, 26 June 2006, DENIC processed the ten millionth application for a .de domain. This makes .de the second Top Level Domain, after .com, to pass the hurdle of ten million registered domains. The holder of the jubilee domain, huettenberger-case-fabrik.de, is a manufacturer of transport cases from Linden, a small town in the vicinity of Frankfurt.

Sabine Dolderer, member of the Executive Board of DENIC eG, summed up the milestone in these words: "the registration of the ten millionth .de domain represents a major success for DENIC and its more than 250 members. It also shows that the organization of the Top Level Domain .de as a self-regulated initiative of the industry concerned has worked out well."
