New .br domain extensions available

NIC.br (Brazilian Network Information Center) has announced the launch of new “.br” domain extensions, are available for domain name registration.

The new categories are:

api.br – for identifying Application Programming Interfaces (APIs);
ia.br – for projects and solutions in Artificial Intelligence;
social.br – intended for social media profiles and networks;
xyz.br – versatile and for general use. 

These new registration options are particularly relevant as they are focused on applications, artificial intelligence, and social media.

We recommend that our clients register their trademarks under these extensions in order to secure protection in these areas.
