.lds Domain Information

Country flagLogo for .lds Domain

Religious organization and community services sit behind .lds, a three-letter restricted extension from ICANN's 2012 New gTLD Program. Faith organizations applied on attribution grounds: doctrinal material, genealogical resources, and charitable appeals published under an institution's name carry weight with adherents, and misattributed content on lookalike domains is both a reputational and a donation-fraud problem.

Use covers doctrinal and scripture content, congregational and regional resources, family history services, and humanitarian destinations. Registration is closed to the public and the extension carries no aftermarket. It was filed alongside .mormon, giving the organization namespaces for the formal abbreviation and the colloquial name separately.
