.obi frequently asked questions
01Can I register a .obi domain?
No. .obi is a closed brand extension operated by OBI Group Holding SE & Co. KGaA for their own use. It is not sold by any registrar.
02Why does .obi exist if nobody can buy one?
ICANN's 2012 expansion let organisations apply for a top-level domain matching their own brand. Those registries run under Specification 13 of the registry agreement, which permits a single registrant — the brand itself.
