The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) will soon be accepting applications for .pharmacy domain names from trademark holders who are registered in the ICANN Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH).
The sunrise application period, which begins December 19, 2014, precedes the Sunrise Trademark Clearinghouse Registration Period, which will be from January 15 to March 16, 2015. NABP launched the .pharmacy Top-Level Domain (TLD) to provide consumers around the world a means for identifying safe, legal, and ethical online pharmacies and related resources.
Of the tens of thousands of sites selling prescription drugs online, NABP has reviewed over 10,800 and found that nearly 97% do not follow pharmacy laws and standards established to protect the public health.
NABP will grant use of the .pharmacy domain only to legitimate website operators that adhere to pharmacy laws in the jurisdictions in which they are based and in which their patients and customers reside, so that consumers can easily find safe online pharmacies.
The pharmacy domain application will be available at www.dotpharmacy.net from December 19, 2014.
