Pursuant to the Rights Protection Mechanisms (RPMs) implemented in the course of the New gTLD Program, registry operators of the new gTLDs are required to provide certain services designed to avoid the registration of domain names by potential trademark infringers. These RPMs include a Sunrise Registration Service, which affords trademark owners the ability to pre-emptively register domain names before registration becomes generally available. Furthermore, the Trademark Claims Service requires registry operators to notify registrants and trademark owners if the registrant applies for registration of a domain name which is identical to another’s trademark.

In Israel, trademarks are governed by both legislation and by common law. Rights are created by the first to file or use within the jurisdiction. Registration is not mandatory to establish rights in a trademark, and there are no compulsory registration provisions. However, there are substantial benefits to seeking trademark registration in Israel. The Israel Trade Marks Ordinance (New Version) 5732-1972 (Trademarks Ordinance) governs the rules under which trademarks are registered. Proof of use is not required to obtain registration in Israel, although there are provisions for cancellation of trademarks for non-use.
