'''.mii''' is a [[Brand TLD]] being proposed in [[ICANN]]'s [[New gTLD Program]]. The applicant is [[MiTek USA, Inc.]]<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>  Mitek does not appear to have selected a registry provider nor created a plan for implementation, as the responses to all public registry questions only state: "TLD will not be resold. Purchased for brand protection only." It is also applying for [[.mii]] and [[.sapphire]] and [[.connectors]].

The application was later '''rejected''' by ICANN by the [[String Similarity Panel]] given the strings confusing appearance to the already existant [[.mil]], a TLD exclusively used by the U.S. military. It was the first such TLD to face such an announced ruling from ICANN.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/12172-mii-becomes-the-first-new-gtld-to-face-rejection Mii Becomes the First New gTLD to Face Rejection, DomainIncite.com] Published & Retrieved 7 Mar 2013</ref> The string was later withdrawn by the applicant.
