.merck domain extension

The .merck domain is a brand TLD for Merck, the global pharmaceutical and science company. It is sponsored and operated by Merck Registry Holdings, Inc., which is part of the Merck group. The TLD is restricted to use by the Merck group of companies and their affiliates. Only entities directly associated with Merck can register names. There are no public registrations available. The registry services are provided by DNS Africa Ltd, and registration details are handled through Hogan Lovells in Paris. IANA delegated .merck in April 2026. This is a relatively new gTLD, part of the expanded namespace for established corporate brands.
