Dot Asia domain names to be available first for trade mark owners
19 July, 2007
Applications for domain names ending in .asia will open later this year.

It has now been announced that a 'Sunrise' phase will be open between 9 October and 30 October 2007, to allow priority for holders of registered trade marks to claim a domain name for their mark, in the form trademark.asia

In order to qualify for this phase, the trade mark owner must be in the Asia/Pacific region (including Australia), and the trade mark must have a filing date prior to 14 March 2004.

Further sunrise phases will be available for more recently filed trade marks. Please contact Watermark for further information.
