'''.bar''' is a delegated [[TLD]] in [[ICANN]]'s [[New gTLD Program]].<ref>[http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/program-status/application-results/strings-1200utc-13jun12-en Reveal Day 13 June 2012 – New gTLD Applied-For Strings]</ref> This string, applied for by two applicants as a generic application, was deemed a [[GeoTLD|Geographic TLD]] by ICANN's [[Geographic Names Panel]], referring to a commune in Montenegro. Geo TLDs must have government support in order to pass evaluation and proceed towards delegation.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/12166-told-you-so-four-new-gtlds-given-geographic-surprise-others-given-a-pass Told You So Four New gTLDs Given Geographic Surprise others Given a Pass, DomainIncite.com] Retrieved 7 Mar 2013</ref> The proposed application succeeded and was delegated to the [[Root Zone]] on 27 February 2014.<ref name="delegation">[http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/program-status/delegated-strings Delegated Strings, ICANN.org] Retrieved 5 March 2014</ref>

==Public Comment Objection==
Saudi Arabia's Communications and Information Technology Commission (CITC) filed an objection against the TLD in the public comment forum.<ref>[http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2012/08/16/icann_top_level_domain_applications_saudi_arabia_apparently_objects_to_catholic_gay_bible_.html?from=rss/&wpisrc=newsletter_slatest Saudi Arabia Apparently Objects to .Catholic, .Gay, .Bible, and 28 More Proposed New Top-Level Domains, slate.com]</ref> The comment forum does not require payment for a comment or objection, thus it did not require the [[ICDR]] or the [[ICC]] to determine an outcome. The comment was taken into consideration by the [[Initial Evaluation]] panels.
