Trademark - can you get the domain?

[Alenka]

How the trademark laws work in terms of domain:
I want to buy domain xxx.com for example, there is no registered trademark for such name anywhere in the world. Can I register trademark in the UAE for 30 days and then get the domain as the owner of the trademark?

Generally not possible if you register the trademark after the domain was registered. All the‌ domain owner has to prove is that the domain is older than your trademark, and‍ the dispute becomes null and void.
