Did you know that you can even apply for generic terms now?
The so-called Sunrise 2B has started, which means that Trademarks applied for, on or before Dec 6, 2006 from around the world are now accepted. For example, if you created trademarks especially for the .eu Sunrise, you can use them now again, since the country in which the Trademark is registered does not matter.
And now the special is coming: Register your Mark in combination of a Generic Word describing your business, the DotAsia Registry allow this in their rules. So if you are in Realestate business and your Trademark is ABC you are allowed to register ABCRealesate.asia or ABC-Realestate.asia or RealestateABC.asia or what ever the registry accept... Even combination of 2 or more Marks is possible.
Also, if you operate a Registered Entitiy in Asia such as a company or an organization you are allowed to apply for the name as well, but the entity must be located somewhere in the asian Region.
If you trademarked your domain name with the Top Level Domain (ie EuroDNS.com) you are now allowed to register the name itself, omitting the TLD (eurodns.asia).
At EuroDNS and AsiaDNS we understand that protecting your brand and online identity is important. Please be aware that .asia TLD just started and the asia versions of your new domain name might still available for registration. If you want to learn more about .asia please follow this link to the information PDF or go directly to www.asiadns.com to register your .asia Domain.
