The .COM you know and love is now available in Japanese. Verisign, the registry behind .COM, has announced the release of the .コム IDN, and is offering a unique opportunity for those with existing .COM URLs.
Customers who have .COM domain names now have the opportunity to register a matching domain with the .コム extension. This is an especially great opportunity for Japanese businesses or individuals, or anyone who wants to connect with a Japanese audience. This Priority Access period is your chance to secure your domain with the .コム extension before it becomes available to the general public. But hurry! This Early Access Period ends on May 15, 2016.
If you’re interested in securing matching versions of your .COM domain with the .コム ending, we’ve made it easy to do so! Simply log into your Name.com account and head to your Account Dashboard. Scroll to the bottom of the page and select the IDN Matching Program button the the left-hand side.

The search feature will automatically generate .コム options that match your existing .COM domains.

Why choose .コム?
This domain is perfect for Japanese individuals or business owners, as well as international businesses who want to connect with this particular market. It’s also an excellent way to connect with others in Japan and embraces the country’s culture and language. In addition, this domain has all the recognition of a .COM domain, but utilized Japanese characters.
