When can I next apply for a New gTLD?
ICANN is working to launch a new application round for gTLDs in 2009, following the publication of the Final Applicant Guidebook. However, the precise policies and timeline for introducing new gTLDs is in process of being completed before specific application opening dates can be finalized. ICANN has begun an extended period of outreach and information sharing to ensure that potential applicants have all the information they need to prepare and lodge a successful application. Once this process has been completed, ICANN will announce the date of the open application round for new gTLDs.
