The .diamonds Domain: Jewellery and Fine Stone Trade
.diamonds was recorded in the root zone on 13 November 2013, with Binky Moon, LLC named in the IANA entry as the sponsoring organisation — a date that places it in the first wave of new generic endings. The nTLDstats page accessed on 11 August 2026 counts 2,586 registrations, 1,946 of which are present in the zone file.
For a jeweller, a stone supplier, a bespoke workshop or a brand built around engagement pieces, the address names the product in the first line. The rule: where turnover rests on one product group, .diamonds goes straight to the point; where the collection also covers gold, silver and watches, a wider ending ages better. Try candidates in a domain name search.
No verification of a trading permit or licence for precious stones is defined on the registry side; the address says nothing about what a stone is. If you sell certified stones, put the laboratory's name, the report number and its date on the product page. Dealing in precious metals carries registration and reporting duties in many countries, and those follow from the trade itself rather than from the ending.

.diamonds Domain Lifecycle
What happens day by day after it expires
Day 0 is the domain's expiry dateIn short: your .diamonds domain is put on Client Hold on its expiry date, so the site and e-mail stop that same day. You can still renew during the first 20 days, but from this point a late renewal fee is added on top of the renewal price. On day 20 the registration is deleted and until day 50 only a paid restore brings it back. Nothing at all can be done in the 5 days that follow, and on day 55 the name is open to anyone. There is exactly one way never to enter this chain: keep auto-renewal on.
Domain Is Available (Available)
A .diamonds address at this stage has not been taken yet, and it goes to whoever registers first. Check the name you have in mind — if it is free, it can be yours within minutes.
Domain Is Active (Active Period)
Once registration is complete, the domain is registered to you for the term you selected. You can renew at any point before it expires to keep it active, or switch on auto-renewal so you never have to watch the date.
Renewal Window (Client Hold)
On its expiry date your .diamonds domain is put on Client Hold: the site and e-mail go down that day, but the registration is still yours. A single renewal within these first 20 days brings everything back exactly as it was — nothing is lost. The only difference is that a $11.44 late renewal fee is now added to the renewal price; renewing before the expiry date avoids that fee entirely.
Redemption Period (Redemption / RGP)
On day 20 the registration is deleted and the 30-day redemption period that ICANN requires of every gTLD registry begins. The name is not released to anyone during this time; only you can take it back, by paying the restore fee, until day 50. That fee is far higher than a renewal — renewing on time is always the cheaper route.
Pending Delete (Pending Delete)
Once the redemption window closes too, the domain enters its final 5 days and there is no way back. Neither renewal nor restore works here; nobody — your registrar included — can return the name to you. The registry uses this window as the last hold before the name goes back into the pool.
Open to Anyone Again (Released)
On day 55 the name .diamonds returns to the pool and anyone can register it. Sought-after names are often gone within seconds, and there is no guaranteed way to get one back. Yet staying out of this timeline is entirely in your hands: leave auto-renewal on and the expiry date will never catch you off guard.
The timeline above is the schedule Atak Domain applies and publishes. The ICANN chart you will find elsewhere shows a renewal window of up to 45 days after expiry; ICANN's policy on expired registrations (section 2.2.1) lets registrars delete an expired domain at any time, provided they disclose their policy in advance. We apply that window as 20 days and publish it here in plain sight. Full text of the policy: ICANN Expired Registration Recovery Policy

Frequently Asked Questions About .diamonds Domains
The questions people actually ask before registering — answered plainly.
-
Anyone may; no jewellery trade credential is required.
Binky Moon, LLC asks for no commercial register entry, mining permit or chamber membership. A one-bench workshop and an international supplier register on the same footing. Suitable names can be tested in a domain name search.
-
With the laboratory's name, the report number and the date of issue.
Buyers want to verify a stone against an independent report, and saying that a certificate exists does not meet that need. Keeping a copy of the report reachable and printing the number in the text closes the argument before it starts. For the payment step, see the SSL certificate page.
-
There are 2,586 registrations, 1,946 of them in the zone file.
Both numbers come from the nTLDstats page accessed on 11 August 2026. A publication rate near 75% means three quarters of what is registered is live. The zone stays small, so labels combining a brand name remain largely available.
-
A brand name, or the city the workshop sits in, makes a solid start.
Labels that suggest bargains undercut trust in this trade, where buyers ask about sourcing and workmanship instead. A brand joined to a city is both searchable and natural in shop-window language. Check the variants together in a bulk domain name search.
-
No. Origin and supply chain are known only from your own statement.
Nothing on the registry side verifies such claims. Where the country of origin, the cutting location and the supplier appear on the product page, a buyer can run their own check. Origin claims made without documents leave a position that is hard to defend when returns are raised later.
-
Ask your current registrar for the authorisation code to begin.
Sales concentrate around engagement and holiday seasons, so scheduling the move outside those weeks is sensible. The domain must be unlocked and at least sixty days past registration. View the record with a whois search, then proceed at domain transfer.
