DOMAIN EXTENSION GUIDE

.additive Domain Names

Not yet delegated

The .additive TLD is a proposed ASCII gTLD associated with additive ideas, value-added offerings and specialist sectors such as manufacturing, chemistry, food and digital services. Publicly available IANA data only confirms delegated TLDs, and .additive is not present there, so it should be treated as not yet delegated at this time. ICANN’s 2026 Round materials confirm that new gTLD applications can proceed through application, evaluation, contracting and delegation stages, but those materials do not by themselves prove a named applicant’s filing. Publicly announced information identifies Journey To The West Corporation as the applicant associated with .additive.
