Dot US Domains

The .US country-specific top-level domain extension was set up in 1985 and assigned to the USA, but it was available to the public in 2002. It is amongst the most widespread country-code extensions because a great number of US business enterprises prefer to use a local domain and the US market is one of the largest globally. Many institutions, agencies and local governments also had or still use second-, third- or even fourth-level dot US domains along with their official .GOV domains.

We are amongst the registrar companies offering .US registrations and your new domain will be operational within the hour after you order it. The registration period is between one and ten years and you can also move over an already registered domain and we will renew it once the transfer process is done and the domain is registered on our end. Through our Hepsia Control Panel, you will have total control over your domain name – you can change your WHOIS info, to park your domain, to add custom records, etc.

Solely US citizens, residents, organizations and commercial entities can purchase .US domains, so foreign entities are obliged to have a local presence, whereas persons from other countries cannot purchase such domains. To carry into effect these requirements, the Registry that supervises the TLD – Neustar, performs occasional audits on existing domain names. This is also the reason for this country-code TLD not to support Whois Privacy Protection, so the Registrant (owner) contact details will always be publicly available upon a WHOIS check.
