What is a .diamonds domain?
.diamonds is an unrestricted generic top-level domain for the diamond trade — cutters, dealers, jewellers and lab-grown producers — managed by Binky Moon, LLC through Identity Digital. It was among the very first new gTLDs: IANA delegated it on 19 November 2013 to John Edge, LLC, and it moved to Binky Moon in the 2018 consolidation of 196 extensions.
The plural form is deliberate: it reads as a trade or a collection — patelbros.diamonds — rather than a single stone, which suits dealers and manufacturers better than a retail tagline.

Who in India’s diamond trade registers .diamonds?
.diamonds fits every link of India’s diamond chain: Surat’s cutting and polishing units, Mumbai traders and exporters, lab-grown diamond manufacturers and the jewellers who set the stones. Much of this business is B2B and international, so a name that states the trade in English helps buyers abroad find and trust a supplier.
| Segment | Example | Main use of the site |
|---|---|---|
| Surat manufacturer | varachhapolish.diamonds | Capability profile and export enquiries |
| Mumbai trader or exporter | yourfirm.diamonds | Parcel listings and buyer contact |
| Lab-grown producer | cvdgrown.diamonds | Explains the process and certification |
| Retail jeweller | solitaire.diamonds | Engagement rings and certificate lookup |
| Grading or valuation service | certify.diamonds | Report verification for customers |

Are there eligibility rules for .diamonds?
There are none: the registry does not ask for a trade licence, a membership of a diamond bourse or an export code. What a buyer will ask for is proof that the business is genuine, so the website has to do the work the registry does not.
- Natural or lab-grown: label every stone clearly; mixing the two without disclosure destroys trust fast.
- Certificates: show the grading report number so customers can verify it with the issuing laboratory.
- Business identity: legal name, GSTIN and office address on the contact page, plus IEC for exporters.
- Hallmarking: for gold settings, mention BIS hallmarking where it applies.
.diamonds or .jewelry — which should a jeweller pick?
Choose .diamonds when loose stones or diamond jewellery are the core of the business, and .jewelry when you sell gold, silver, kundan or polki alongside diamonds. Both cost the same at WebJi®, so the decision is purely about what customers should expect on arrival. Note the American spelling: .jewelry exists, “.jewellery” does not.
A Surat or Mumbai exporter often runs the main site on .com for overseas buyers and keeps a .diamonds name as a short, trade-specific address on business cards and trade-fair banners.
Setting up a .diamonds website
A diamond site needs crisp product photography, certificate lookups and, for retail, a secure checkout — all on pages that load quickly on mobile. Jewellers selling online usually start on WooCommerce hosting; exporters with large catalogues may prefer a cloud VPS. Add an EV SSL certificate if you want the strongest business validation on checkout. Moving an existing name? Read domain transfer, or browse all domain extensions.
Frequently asked questions
Who manages the .diamonds registry?
Binky Moon, LLC, operated by Identity Digital Inc. from Bellevue, Washington. The extension was first delegated to John Edge, LLC in November 2013, making it one of the earliest new gTLDs, and transferred to Binky Moon in 2018.
Can a lab-grown diamond brand use .diamonds?
Yes. The registry sets no rule on natural versus laboratory-grown stones. Because buyers care about the difference, put “lab-grown” clearly in product titles and descriptions, and show certificate numbers, so the domain name is never read as a claim the stones are mined.
Is .diamonds a good choice for a diamond exporter in Surat?
It works well as a trade address because overseas buyers read the business type in the name. Exporters often keep a .com as the main site and use the .diamonds name for trade fairs and printed material, redirecting it to the relevant catalogue page.
What does .diamonds cost for five years?
₹54,967 before 18% GST at current WebJi® rates: ₹9,471 for the first year and four renewals at ₹11,374. A GST-registered firm can claim input credit on the tax.
Is the .diamonds zone DNSSEC-signed?
Yes. IANA shows a secure delegation for .diamonds, so you can enable DNSSEC on your name through a DNS host that supports it — sensible for a site that handles high-value orders.
