.Tr Domain 3rd Category Policies Rules

This article describes the 2024 priority period: priority applications closed on August 7, 2024, .tr opened for general registration in September 2024, and an activation code is no longer needed. Under Category 3, priority for "a.tr" domain names was given to the holders of the following domains allocated as of August 25, 2023:

• “a.kep.tr”,
• “a.av.tr”,
• "a.dr.tr”,
• “a.com.tr”,
• “a.org.tr”,
• “a.net.tr”,
• “a.gen.tr”,
• “a.web.tr”,
• “a.name.tr”,
• “a.info.tr”,
• "a.tv.tr”,
• “a.bbs.tr”,
• “a.tel.tr”

Priority was given to the owners of these domain extensions in the order listed above in case of the same "a" extension.
 
Category 3 applications opened on February 14, 2024 and, after an extension, were accepted until August 7, 2024; .tr opened for general registration in September 2024.
 
Applications were made with the application code obtained from the registrar of the existing domain (e.g. trabis.com.tr). After
obtaining the application code, the priority application could also be submitted at www.atakdomain.com.

Frequently Asked Questions

"I am the owner of the domain with the structure 'a.b.tr' falling under category 3. What should I do to allocate the domain corresponding to 'a.tr' structure?

As of August 25, 2023, owners of domains with extensions such as 'kep.tr,' 'av.tr,' 'dr.tr,' 'com.tr,' 'org.tr,' 'net.tr,' 'gen.tr,' 'web.tr,' 'name.tr,' 'info.tr,' 'tv.tr,' 'bbs.tr,' and 'tel.tr' requested an application code from the registration organization they received services from, following the announcement on the institution's website. Using the application code, they applied through their preferred registration organization (the 'a.tr' application did not have to be made through the service-providing registration organization). After the application process was completed, allocations were carried out considering the hierarchy in the extension list mentioned above (for example, if applications were made within the specified period for domain names like 'a.com.tr' and 'a.net.tr,' priority was given to the owner of 'a.com.tr'). The order of applications did not affect the allocation process; allocations were made considering the hierarchical structure mentioned above."

"I am the owner of the domain with the structure 'a.b.tr' falling under category 3. Despite being in the priority category, why wasn't the domain with the structure 'a.tr' allocated to me?

As of August 25, 2023, allocation processes were carried out in accordance with the hierarchy for those who applied within the announced date range by the owners of domains with extensions like 'kep.tr,' 'av.tr,' 'dr.tr,' 'com.tr,' 'org.tr,' 'net.tr,' 'gen.tr,' 'web.tr,' 'name.tr,' 'info.tr,' 'tv.tr,' 'bbs.tr,' and 'tel.tr,' considering the mentioned hierarchy.

"Will my allocated 'a.tr' domain with structure 1/2/3 be redirected to my 'a.b.tr' domain?

Due to the structure of domain names, they are unique; therefore, the allocation of the domain name with the structure 'a.tr' creates a different domain name. If preferred, relevant processes can be carried out by the domain owner for redirection (TRABIS does not perform redirection processes).

Will there be a relationship between my allocated 'a.tr' domain with structure 1/2/3 and my 'a.b.tr' domain?

Addresses falling under the category will establish a relationship with domain names with the structure 'a.tr,' and actions such as waiver, transfer, and cancellation for one of the addresses with the structure 'a.b.tr' will apply to the associated 'a.tr' domain names. However, actions taken for the 'a.tr' domain name will not affect the essential domain name for allocation. (For example, if waiver is made for 'btk.gov.tr,' it will be considered waived for 'btk.tr' associated with it, but even if 'btk.tr' is waived, 'btk.gov.tr' will continue to be used). There is no relationship for categories 2 and 3."
