DOMAIN EXTENSION GUIDE

.kit Domain Names

Application announced; not delegated

The.kit string appears in public ICANN new gTLD programme materials as an applied-for extension, and the 2026 round closed on 12 August 2026. Publicly announced information also identifies applicants associated with.kit, indicating contention rather than a live delegated extension. Until delegation occurs,.kit should be treated as a prospective TLD rather than an active domain space. (icann.org)

Frequently asked questions

Is.kit live yet?

No. Public ICANN materials show the 2026 round closed and the string should be treated as prospective rather than delegated.

What does.kit suggest?

It suggests kits, toolsets, packs, bundles and other assembled groupings.

Who is.kit for?

It is most suitable for brands, makers, retailers, agencies, educators and projects built around organised sets or resources.

Can I register a.kit domain now?

Not unless and until the string is delegated and made available by its eventual registry operator.

Why is contention relevant?

Publicly announced information identifies more than one claimant associated with the string, which can affect the path to delegation.

What kinds of names suit.kit?

Short names tied to starter packs, media kits, brand kits, toolkits, care kits and similar bundle concepts usually fit best.
