ICANN: New gTLD Auction Rules Update

The Auction Rules were recently updated to clarify the use of the Auction Date Advancement/Postponement Request Form. The form is due at least 45 days prior to a scheduled Auction Date.

In addition, clarification is added to the default process. If a Winner is declared in default, any remaining Bidder that withdraws its Application from the New gTLD Program will not be eligible to receive an offer to have its Application accepted. Please find the latest version in the link below.
