The new .expert extension has been proposed with the aim of providing an authoritative Internet space dedicated to "experts" in every sphere and sector.
Anyone with a thorough, authoritative and complete expertise, or a specific skill in a particular area, can register a new .expert domain to make one's knowledge known, share specialised techniques and advice, promote and provide consultation services, or more simply, to create a personal online space, an original business card or a curriculum vitae!

The Sunrise of .expert domain is a limited period of time during which holders of trademarks may preregister names that are the same or similar to their trademark in a privileged way and at an additional cost before it is sold to the public.
To participate in the Sunrise phase of the .expertdomain, the trademark must be validated by a third party designated by ICANN: the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH).
Dominiando is an official TMCH agent and can, therefore, carry out brand validation procedures of the trademark on your behalf.
This validation is mandatory to participate in the Sunrise of all new domains and the same validation can be reused for registration during the Sunrise periods of all extensions that allow it.
More than one request for the same .expert domain name will be settled by an auction between the contenders, trademark holders.
