liaison (.liaison)

The .liaison TLD was a generic top-level domain originally delegated to Liaison Technologies, Incorporated. Its intended use is unclear from IANA records, but the name suggests it was likely aimed at liaison or intermediary services. The domain never made it into the global DNS root zone, meaning .liaison websites were never accessible via normal internet browsing. Liaison Technologies, the applicant behind this TLD, is a data integration and cloud services company. The TLD was revoked by ICANN in January 2020, about five years after its initial delegation in April 2015. No new registrations or renewals are possible because the domain is no longer part of the root zone.

The .liaison domain was delegated in 2015 under the new gTLD program. It never appeared in the root zone servers during its short lifespan. ICANN revoked it in January 2020, just under five years after delegation. The reasons for the revocation are not detailed in the IANA record, but it likely related to the registry operator failing to meet contractual obligations.
