Audio file 23.3MB	The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) formally granted the sponsored top-level domain name .post to the UPU on 9 December 2009.   The UPU is the first United Nations agency to obtain a top-level domain name for the global industry it represents.   .post will facilitate the development of secure and trusted postal services over the Internet and enable the UPU to reach the full potential of its original mission, to build a worldwide space without borders that facilitates personal and business communication in a secure and trusted environment.   Having delegated authority for .post, the UPU will develop, implement and monitor governance rules for .post and manage the attribution of domain names. These are expected to be available by mid-2010 for postal-sector stakeholders who meet the eligibility criteria.     .post contract Link to ICANN    About .post Frequently asked questions  63kB UPU e-services strategy  351kB   News ICANN grants UPU .post top-level domain  62kB UPU and ICANN conclude negociations for .post  30kB   Useful link ICANN    Contacts International Bureau contact
