Domain names that end in a generic top-level domain (for example, .com, .net, and .org).
Certain country code top-level domains.
ICANN requires domain name registrars to incorporate the UDRP into their registration agreements. As a result, parties who register domain names contractually agree to resolve trademark-based domain name disputes through a streamlined arbitration process with an ICANN-approved dispute-resolution service provider (a UDRP proceeding).
To prevail in a UDRP proceeding, a trademark owner (the complainant) must establish that:
The domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark in which the complainant has rights.
The respondent has no legitimate rights in the domain name at issue.
The respondent registered and is using the domain name in bad faith.
Remedies in UDRP proceedings are transfer or cancellation of the offending domain name.
A copy of the UDRP is available on the ICANN website.
