.快递
Is .快递 a real TLD? Who’s applying to run it?
Nobody is chasing .快递, as of 7 October 2026. One applicant claimed it and is out. We keep the entry on the record either way.

A Chinese keyword for "express delivery" — a big industry, but one living in apps and .com/.cn brands, so demand for this ending looks thin.
chinese express-delivery and logistics companies, their franchisees, and sector marketers who want a Chinese-script keyword address; in practice more likely defensive and campaign registrants than primary-identity users
In Journey To The West's published portfolio of 323 strings submitted in the ICANN 2026 round; a Chinese-script IDN (“express delivery”, A-label xn--66tv58h). Their catalog line: “Fast parcels, tracked door to door.”
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: a plain Chinese-script trade noun naming one service industry, sold as the sector's namespace to the many small operators in it, and dependent on Chinese users accepting a non-Latin TLD as a primary identity rather than a redirect.
Semantically the identical wager — an unowned generic category noun for the parcel/courier-and-fulfillment trade with no incumbent brand able to claim it — differing only in that it courts the global Latin-script market instead of the Chinese one.
Also a Chinese-script generic noun for a commercial service vertical aimed at the firms that operate in it, but its buyers are agencies and employer HR pages rather than a logistics industry with physical branch and franchise networks.
What a .快递 domain is
.快递 is not a TLD yet. It is a string on our record of the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, filed under Commerce. Nobody is chasing .快递 today. The applicants that claimed it are out.
Is the .快递 domain extension real yet?
.快递 is not yet a domain extension you can register: nothing resolves under it, and no registrar sells names in it. Nobody has applied for it on the public record; the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round is the process that would decide whether it becomes one.
When can you buy a .快递 domain?
You can’t yet. A .快递 name can only be registered once the string is delegated (added to the DNS root) and its registry opens. Last round's closest parallel to .快递 was .餐厅, delegated on 30 May 2015.
Is .快递 a real TLD?
Not yet. .快递 is not in the DNS root, so nothing resolves under it. It’s here because an applicant claimed .快递 and is no longer in it. We keep the entry, and every entry on this page links to its source.

- I place this in the 10-29 band (vanity/narrow). The underlying industry is huge, but China's parcel sector is dominated by a few consolidated carriers whose identities are entrenched Latin-script brands on .com/.cn, and consumer interaction happens overwhelmingly inside apps and super-app mini-programs rather than typed URLs — a poor substrate for a keyword suffix. By analogy, earlier Chinese-script vertical IDN TLDs (e.g. online/shopping-themed strings) drew registrations that skewed speculative and promotional with little sustained primary-identity use, and I expect the same pattern here; that analogy is the core of my judgment, as I have no verified figures. It is not in the 30-49 band because I see no mechanism for volume registrations: the long tail of the delivery sector (franchise outlets, couriers) does not operate websites, so even price-driven registration demand looks shallow. It is above the 1-9 band because defensive and marketing registrations by carriers, e-commerce platforms, and logistics-tech vendors are plausible, giving it a small but real market. Main market uncertainty: whether Chinese-language users' typing and search behavior gives IDN suffixes meaningfully more traction over the next 5 years than past adoption patterns suggest.
