.london is a top-level domain (TLD) for London, England. It was approved by ICANN as a city-level TLD on 7 June 2013.[2] On 29 April 2014, the domain name went on sale for the first time.[3] London and Partners, which promotes the city, said that .london would carry a premium because of its exclusivity.
