.customs Domain Names

Pre-launch; not delegated

.customs is a proposed generic top-level domain associated with customs, trade compliance and border-related services. Publicly announced information identifies Journey To The West Corporation as the applicant associated with.customs, and the string appears in the organisation’s 2026 new gTLD portfolio. It is not shown in IANA’s Root Zone Database, so it should be treated as not yet delegated. (xiyou.domains)
