.msd Domain Information

Country flagLogo for .msd Domain

Pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and animal health sit behind .msd, a three-letter restricted extension from ICANN's 2012 New gTLD Program. The string is the name under which one side of a long-divided pharmaceutical trademark operates outside its home territory — part of the same split-ownership situation that produced .merck, .merckmsd, and .emerck as separate applications in the round.

Use covers therapy area and product content, clinical and research resources, healthcare professional destinations, and country sites. Registration is closed to the public and the extension carries no aftermarket. Three-letter strings were the scarcest asset in the program, which made securing this one valuable independent of the disambiguation it provides.
