Yesterday, 19 November, was the first deadline in the Applicant Support Program (ASP) application submission period. As you may recall, ICANN announced an extension: applicants that enter organizational information in the system by 19 November 2025 will have until 19 December 2025 to submit a complete application. 

126 submitted their Organizational details to ICANN. Of these, 106 are considered “active”. Meaning, the applicant has had some activity in the ASP Application System in the last 90 days. Active submitted Organizations are distributed across the ICANN regions as follows: 

• Africa: 22

• APAC: 41

• Europe: 11

• LAC: 4

• N. America: 28

Many thanks to everyone in the ASP-IRT, SubPro-IRT, and broader ICANN Community who contributed to reaching this milestone. We look forward to sharing an update with the final application submission numbers on 19 December. 

Kind regards,

Kristy, on behalf of the ASP Team
