Registration
Can anyone register a .US domain name?
No. All .US domains are reserved exclusively for US residents or citizens, companies based in the US, or organizations with offices located in the US. You must meet all the usTLD Nexus Requirements.
Can I hide my registration information (WHOIS privacy)?
Private registration is not available for .US domain names, but the public WHOIS information does not disclose any sensitive personal information, according to the latest GDPR regulations.
Do you offer a free and reliable DNS service for .US domains?
Yes, you can register your .US domain name and use the registrar's name servers to set up custom DNS records or simply redirect your domain to another URL address. If you have a hosting account with us, and your domain is using our name servers, then you can manage its DNS records through the DNS Manager section of your hosting Control Panel. It is mandatory for .US domain names to use name servers physically located in the United States.
What is the registration term allowed for .US domain names?
The minimum registration period is 1 year, and the maximum registration period is 10 years.
How long does it take for a .US domain name to be registered?
The .US domain name is registered as soon as we receive your payment. This usually happens almost instantly.
Renewal
When should I renew my .US domain name?
To avoid any downtime for all domain-related services, we encourage you to renew your domain name before its expiration date.
Is there a grace period, so I can renew my expired .US domain name?
If your domain name expires, you usually have up to 30 days to renew it at the standard rate. After this period, the domain name may enter the so-called Redemption Grace Period. To have your domain name reinstated during the RGP, the registrar charges an additional fee of $80.00. The RGP length is also 30 days, but not all domains enter the RGP after the initial 30-day grace period. It is highly recommended that you renew before the domain name expires to avoid losing it. We cannot guarantee that you will be able to renew or keep your domain name if it has already expired.
Transfer
I registered a .US domain name elsewhere. Can I transfer my .US domain name to you?
Yes, but there are certain requirements. The domain needs to be at least 60 days old. The domain should be unlocked at its current registrar, and you need to obtain the domain's EPP/Auth code to begin a transfer.
Can I transfer out a .US domain name I've registered through you?
The domain name needs to be at least 60 days old. You can submit a support ticket through our ticketing system to request that we unlock your domain name and send its EPP/Auth code to you.
