<p><span class="seoSummary">The <strong><code>is</code></strong> <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes">global attribute</a> allows you to specify that a standard HTML element should behave like a defined custom built-in element (see <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/Web_Components/Using_custom_elements">Using custom elements</a> for more details).</span></p>

<p>This attribute can only be used if the specified custom element name has been successfully <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/CustomElementRegistry/define">defined</a> in the current document, and extends the element type it is being applied to.</p>
