> Following the recent introduction of the .africa domain extension, Kenya
> has announced the launch dates and phases for the second-level .ke domain
> extension
>
>
>
>
>
>
>
> With the ‘dot’ AFRICA (.africa) domain launch process well into its
> ‘publicly available’ phase, brand owners should now prepare for the release
> of a new second-level domain in Kenya, ‘dot’ KE (.ke)
> The Kenya Network Information Centre (KeNIC), the body responsible for the
> administration and management of the new second-level .ke domain, says that
> the domain is being introduced to combat cyber-squatting and domain
> hijacking.
> The launch will be divided into three phases. The Sunrise phase kicked off
> on 23 July 2017 and will close on 22 October 2017. During this phase, only
> brand owners who hold trade mark registrations in Kenya will be allowed to
> apply for corresponding domain names. Trade mark registrations need not be
> validated with the Trade Mark Clearing House (“TMCH”) or the Mark
> Validation System (“MVS”). However, brand owners are required to verify
> their registrations at the Kenyan trade marks registry and obtain a
> confirmation letter before applying for a domain name.
> The Sunrise phase will be followed by a 30-day Land Rush period during
> which competing applicants can bid on domain names. Once the Land Rush
> phase comes to an end, a 30-day Cooling Off phase will begin during which
> KeNIC will assess whether the applications meet the eligibility
> requirements for the respective phases. Thereafter, General Availability
> will open and domain name registrations will be granted on a
> first-come-first-serve basis.
> Should you wish to verify your trade marks, and the registration thereof
> in the new second-level .ke extension, kindly contact your usual contact at
