Dot US Domain Registration

The dot US country-specific top-level extension was launched in 1985 and given to the United States, but it was opened to the public in 2002. It is one of the most widely used country extensions since a great number of US businesses prefer to use a local domain and the US market is one of the largest in the world. Quite a lot of institutions, agencies and local governments also used or still use second-, third- or even fourth-level dot US domains along with their official .GOV domains.

We are one of the service providers offering .US registrations and your new domain will be active minutes 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 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 alter your contact information, to park your domain, to add custom DNS records, etc.

Only US citizens, residents, organizations and corporations can acquire .US domains, so foreign entities are required to have a local presence, whilst persons from other countries cannot reserve such domains. To carry into effect these prerequisites, the Registry that administrates the TLD – Neustar, performs arbitrary checks on existing domain names. This is also the reason for this country-specific top-level domain not to support Whois Privacy Protection, so the Registrant (owner) contact information will always be publicly visible upon a WHOIS lookup.
