1. Sunrise-Phase (ab 30. August 2021)

From 30 August until 29 October 2021, you can pre-order .ZUERICH domains for trademarks registered in the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) with a commercial register entry and administrative headquarters in the Canton of Zurich.

1. If you do not yet have an SMD file, register (for a fee) on the following page: https://secure.trademark-clearinghouse.com/tmch/public/contract to create the SMD file.
2. How you want to pay for the SMD file is up to you, you have two options. We recommend “Holder”, which costs $150 per entry.
3. As soon as you have received your SMD file, you can send us your SMD file with the desired domain and we will register the domain for you.
