DOMAIN EXTENSION GUIDE

.phi Domain Names

Proposed; not delegated

The.phi string is publicly associated with a named applicant in the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round materials, so it is best treated as a proposed extension rather than an active public namespace. Publicly announced information identifies Link Freedom Group as the applicant associated with.phi. As a result, visitor-facing guidance should focus on illustrative uses and status-aware expectations rather than live registration claims.
