.archi is a proposed TLD in ICANN's New gTLD Program. STARTING DOT, a French new gTLD start up company applying for 5 total TLDs, is the only applicant for .archi.[1]

STARTING DOT plans to restrict the registration of .archi domain names to certified architects and individuals who have graduated with a degree in architecture.[2] The application is supported by the Paris-based International Architectural Union (UIA), the umbrella trade organization for more than one million architects.[3] The UIA was founded in 1948, UIA is the most representative professional organization of architects and the only global network of architecture, covering120 countries and territories through its members sections.[4]

The UIA has objected to the open gTLD application for .architect submitted by Donuts.[5]

GAC Early Warning

France issued GAC early warnings to this string and the related .architect string. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the ICANN Board that a given TLD application should be denied as it stands. Applicants are encouraged to work with objecting GAC members.[6]

The warning notes that architects are a certified and regulated sector in France and asks that the TLD be limited to only legitimate architects.[7]

Contract Signed

On 06 February 2014 Starting Dot received a Registry Agreement signed by ICANN for .archi after passing all the required processes needed to become a Registry Operator for the string.[8]
