Frequently asked questions about the .BNL domain
Can I register a .bnl domain?
No. This extension was revoked by ICANN on July 29, 2019 and is no longer delegated in the IANA root zone, so no registrar in the world can offer its registration.
Who owned .bnl?
It was delegated to Banca Nazionale del Lavoro, an Italian bank that is part of the French BNP Paribas group from June 11, 2015 until its delegation was revoked.
What does it mean for an extension to be "revoked"?
It means ICANN has formally withdrawn that extension's delegation from the internet root zone, usually because the operator stopped paying registry fees or decided to discontinue its brand extension program.
Could it be reactivated in the future?
Unlikely for revoked brand extensions, since they are usually abandoned voluntarily by the owning company itself.
What alternatives do I have in the meantime?
You can choose from hundreds of active and available extensions — from .com to more sector-specific options.
