Dot US Domain Names

The dot US country-code top-level domain extension was established in 1985 and given to the USA, but it was available to the public in 2002. It is among the most popular country-specific extensions since lots of US businesses prefer to have a local domain and the US market is one of the largest worldwide. Many institutions, agencies and local governments also used or still use second-, third- or even fourth-level dot US domains along with their official .GOV domain names.

We are amongst the companies offering dot US registrations and your new domain will be online within the hour after you order it. The registration period is between 1 and 10 years and you can also move over an existing domain and we will renew it after 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 – you can change your contact information, to park your domain, to create custom DNS records, and so on.

Only US citizens, residents, organizations and commercial entities can obtain .US domains, so foreign entities are obliged to have a local presence, whilst individuals from other countries cannot get such domains. To carry into effect these limitations, the Registry organization that handles the TLD – Neustar, performs random checks on existing domain names. This is also the reason for this country-code top-level domain name extension not to support Whois Privacy Protection, so the Registrant (owner) contact info will always be publicly accessible upon a WHOIS check.
