.tokiomarine
Is .tokiomarine a real TLD? Who’s applying to run it?
.tokiomarine is not contested. One application for it is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list, as of 7 October 2026. It is Tokio Marine Holdings, Inc..
A closed brand space for one insurance group: useful to Tokio Marine itself, with no market or resale value for anyone else.
Tokio Marine Holdings and its group companies, for official sites, product lines and customer-facing services under a brand-controlled namespace; no outside buyers.
The 2012 applications making the most similar bet. Chosen by AI from every string in that round, without being told what happened to any of them.
Same bet almost exactly: a large Japanese insurance group putting its own corporate house name on a closed .brand, betting that an insurer's identity and trust are better carried on its own namespace than on a legacy second-level domain.
A multinational insurer's own non-English corporate name as a closed brand string — the buyer is one company, the job is identity consolidation across many national markets and agent/broker subdomains, which is the same wager Tokio Marine is making.
Also a concatenated proper company name owned by a single large insurer with an agent-distribution network, so the string does the same identity job; it is a notch further away because it is a single-market consumer-retail insurer rather than a multinational commercial/marine carrier.
What a .tokiomarine domain is
.tokiomarine is not a TLD yet. It is a string on our record of the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, filed under Brand. One application for it is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list.
Is the .tokiomarine domain extension real yet?
.tokiomarine is not yet a domain extension you can register: nothing resolves under it, and no registrar sells names in it. It is a string applicants have put forward in the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, the process that decides whether it becomes one.
When can you buy a .tokiomarine domain?
You can’t yet. ICANN publishes every applied-for string on Reveal Day, 7 October 2026 at 18:00 UTC. A .tokiomarine name can only be registered after that, once the string is delegated and its registry opens. Last round's closest parallel to .tokiomarine was .nissay, delegated on 30 March 2016.
Is .tokiomarine a real TLD?
Not yet. .tokiomarine is not in the DNS root, so nothing resolves under it. It’s here because .tokiomarine is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list of applied-for strings. Every entry on this page links to its source.

- Band chosen: 10-29 (vanity/narrow). The verified facts show a single confirmed application by Tokio Marine Holdings, Inc. filed as a brand type, so this is a dot-brand: the only realistic buyer is the applicant group, and its value is end-use utility (a namespace the group controls end to end, which can help with trust and anti-impersonation for an insurer) rather than any resale or brand-halo value to third parties. It is not in the 30-49 band because there will be no registrations at volume, no price-driven demand and no aftermarket at all; the string has no meaning outside the company. It is not in the 1-9 band because there is one serious buyer with a genuine, durable use case, and the operator is a large group that can plausibly sustain the namespace for the next 5 years. By analogy (flagged as analogy), many financial-services and insurance dot-brands from the 2012 round were delegated and then used mainly for redirects, campaign sites or defensive holding, with a minority moving primary properties onto them; outcomes split on internal commitment rather than market demand. Main uncertainty: whether the group actually migrates customer-facing identity onto .tokiomarine or holds it defensively, which decides whether the end-use utility is realized at all.
