Dot US Domain Names

The dot US country-code domain was introduced in 1985 and given to the United States of America, but it was opened to the public in 2002. It is amongst the most widespread country-specific extensions given the fact that many US commercial entities prefer to use a local domain and the US market is amongst the largest globally. A lot of institutions, agencies and local governments also used or still have second-, third- or even fourth-level .US domains together with their official .GOV domains.

We are among the registrar companies offering dot US registrations and your new domain will be online within a matter of minutes after you order it. The registration interval is between 1 and 10 years and you can also transfer an existing domain and we will renew it as soon as the transfer process is completed and the domain is registered on our end. Through our Hepsia Control Panel tool, you will have full control over your domain name – you will be able to alter your WHOIS details, to park your domain, to set up custom DNS records, etc.

Only US citizens, residents, organizations and business entities can register dot US domains, so foreign entities are required to have a local presence, while individuals from other countries cannot register such domains. To carry into effect these limitations, the Registry organization that supervises the TLD – Neustar, performs random checks on existing domain names. This is also the reason for this country-specific TLD not to support Whois Privacy Protection, so the Registrant (owner) contact info will always be publicly visible upon a WHOIS check.
