Every month dozens of new extensions are launched, including those mentioned below. These new extensions have the main advantage of being able to match your activity to your domain name and, therefore, to be more visible on the Internet.

For each extension, is mentioned the period known as « Sunrise » which is a priority registration phase for owners whose marks have been registered with the Trademark Clearing House (TMCH).

The date of the general opening of the traditional reservation procedure is also mentioned in the table below.
