Important Note:
*To register a domain name in the Lebanese Domain Registry LB-DOM, it is mandatory to trademark the exact domain name that the applicant is requesting at the Lebanese IP Protection Office under class 35. The trademark certificate should reflect the exact domain name in Latin characters, covering the internet advertising and use in class 35. For (XYZ.com.lb), the trademark "XYZ" should be registered.
*The company owning the domain name must has a legal local presence in Lebanon,practicing in Lebanon, and has a number in the commercial registry. If this condition is not available, then the only way to achieve registration is by a specific authorization to register the Domain Name in the name of a local legal entity this would be our firm.
