The industry categorizes domains as regular, premium, and ultra-premium, but such labels can be subjective in my personal opinion. Having been in the pharma domain market since 2009, I prefer a simpler view: there are good domains, bad domains, and exceptionally good domains—the ones that offer multiple advantages if leveraged correctly. To me, the 'status' of a domain really depends on the observer's perspective.

When buying and selling domains where no price is listed, it's standard to initiate a dialogue and discuss pricing. In this case, finding a serious and transparent company with whom we can establish a mutually beneficial agreement.

UNITED STATES

Domain names are treated as intangible assets. The acquisition can be capitalized and amortized over typically 15 years, per IRS guidelines. Costs may be deductible in the year they are incurred, under certain conditions.

CANADA

Costs for a domain name can also be capitalized and amortized. Domain names might fall under Class 12 with a Capital Cost Allowance (CCA) rate of 100% per year on a declining balance basis, and could potentially be classified as software.

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

If a domain is bought and sold within a short period as part of regular business operations, the financial gains or losses could be treated as ordinary business income or losses. Consulting with a tax professional or accountant is essential due to the complexity and variability of tax laws.
