Sunrise Period
February 10th 2020 - September 4th 2020
Once a TLD gets approved by ICANN, registered trademark holders have the opportunity to register domain names before members of the general public. Currently, Namecheap does not support this phase.

Pick up a highly desirable, non-trademarked domain name during the Early Access Period, for an additional fee that decreases as the days count down. It’s your chance to grab the very best domain names before they get snapped up.
General Availability (GA)
September 16th 2020
Once a domain enters this period, anyone can register a domain, at a standard price.
