Dot US Domain Registration

The dot US country-code TLD was set up in 1985 and assigned to the United States of America, but it was opened to the public in 2002. It is amongst the most widely used country extensions considering the fact that numerous US firms prefer to have a local domain and the US market is among the largest around the globe. Lots of institutions, agencies and local governments also had or still have second-, third- or even fourth-level dot US domains together with their official .GOV domains.

We are among the domain providers offering .US registrations and your new domain will be operational within minutes after you order it. The registration period is between 1 and 10 years and you can also move over an already registered domain and we will renew it after the transfer is finished and the domain is registered on our end. Through our Hepsia Control Panel interface, you will have total control over your domain – you will be able to update your contact info, to park your domain, to set up custom records, and so on.

Only American citizens, residents, organizations and businesses can acquire dot US domains, so foreign entities must have a local presence, while persons from other countries are not able to register such domains. To enforce these prerequisites, the Registry that manages the TLD – Neustar, performs occasional audits on existing domain names. This is also the reason for this country-specific top-level domain extension not to support Whois Privacy Protection, so the Registrant (owner) contact information will always be publicly available upon a WHOIS lookup.
