Does .brand exist?
Not yet: applied for
Not yet. .brand is not in the DNS root, so no registrar can sell a .brand domain today. 10 applicants (Internet DotTrademark Organisation Limited, Intercap Registry Inc. and 8 others) filed for .brand in ICANN's 2026 new gTLD round, and only one can run it. It can only be registered after ICANN delegates it and the registry opens sales.
Who applied for .brand, what they say it is for, and what happens next.
Source: ICANN 2026 round applications, checked November 1, 2026. Not in the IANA root zone as of October 31, 2026.
