.US Domain Names

The .US country-specific domain name extension was set up in 1985 and assigned to the United States, but it was available to the public in 2002. It is one of the most widespread ccTLDs having in mind that a lot of US corporations prefer to use a local domain and the US market is one of the largest around the world. Quite a few institutions, agencies and local governments also had or still have second-, third- or even fourth-level dot US domains together with their official dot GOV domains.

We are amongst the registration providers offering dot US registrations and your new domain will be online minutes after you order it. The registration period is between one and ten years and you can also move over an existing domain and we will renew it as soon as the transfer is finished and the domain is registered on our end. Through our Hepsia Control Panel tool, you will have total control over your domain name – you can change your contact info, to park your domain, to add custom records, and so on.

Only American citizens, residents, organizations and firms can reserve .US domains, so foreign entities need to have a local presence, while persons from other countries cannot purchase such domains. To carry into effect these restrictions, the Registry organization that manages the TLD – Neustar, performs occasional audits on existing domain names. This is also the reason for this country-code domain name extension not to support Whois Privacy Protection, so the Registrant (owner) details will always be publicly accessible upon a WHOIS lookup.
