Upcoming TLDs / .leo

Can you register a .leo domain?

Not yet: applied for
The short answer
Not yet. .leo is not in the DNS root, so no registrar can sell a .leo domain today. It is one of 986 strings applied for in ICANN's 2026 new gTLD round, published October 7, 2026. 2 applicants want it (Amazon Registry Services, Inc. and TechEdge), and only one can run it.

When will .leo be available?

ICANN has not set a date. The final list of applied-for strings comes on String Confirmation Day (November 17, 2026), community input and objections run until March 16, 2027, and ICANN processes applications after a prioritization draw in 2027. Registration opens only after ICANN delegates .leo and its registry announces launch dates.
