News and updates

The items on this page include common names that have been provisionally approved by the member bodies of ISO/TC 81 and that have a 6-month window for objections before becoming approved. If you wish to file an objection, for example because you consider that a name infringes on one of your company’s trademarks, please contact the Maintenance Agency.

Common names that have reached “approved” status and are ready to be added to the next annual update of the XML data set are also announced on this page.
