Registration Information
The .BAR launch is divided into three phases: Trademark Holder (Sunrise), Priority Pre-Registration (Landrush) and General Availability. Each phase has specific application requirements:
From April 9, 2014, at 18:00 UTC to June 8, 2014, at 18:00 UTC, trademark holders can submit an application to register a .BAR domain containing their owned mark, before it's available to the public. When you submit the registration request, you pay registration and application fees. Application fees are non-refundable.
Trademark validation goes through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH), which is an ICANN global repository for trademark data. Visit the TMCH website for information on registering a trademark.
Bulk .BAR registration is not supported during this phase.
From June 11, 2014, at 18:00 UTC to July 10, 2014, at 18:00 UTC, customers can purchase .BAR domain names at a premium price. When you submit the registration request, you pay registration and application fees.
Multiple Priority Pre-Registration applications with different registrars are resolved via auction. If you don't get the domain you want, we refund your registration fee. However, applications fees are non-refundable.
Bulk .BAR registration is not supported during this phase.
Beginning July 14, 2014, at 18:00 UTC, customers can register .BAR domain names on a first-come, first-served basis.
