.haus registration
.haus is an open domain extension for people, businesses, and organisations connected with homes, property, architecture, construction, interiors, accommodation, or neighbourhood services. The German word “Haus” means “house” or “home,” so a .haus address communicates that focus directly. There are no location, residency, or professional eligibility conditions, and available names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. A .haus label may contain between 1 and 63 characters. The extension also supports many internationalised Latin characters, including common French and Spanish accents, German ß, and characters such as æ and œ. This allows brands, surnames, and descriptive terms to retain their natural spelling where supported. To transfer an existing .haus domain to host.yt, first remove the transfer lock at the current registrar and request the domain’s authorisation code. Submit that code with the transfer order. Completion may take several days, and one year is added to the domain’s expiration date when the transfer finishes. Changing the registered holder requires authentication by both parties. Validation messages are sent to the current and incoming holders, and the request is cancelled if it is not completed within five days. A completed holder change does not alter the domain’s expiration date. .haus also supports DNSSEC, renewals, restoration, registrar locking, privacy preferences, DNS management, and web or email forwarding operations.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .haus extension mean?
haus uses the German word for “house” or “home,” giving the address an immediate connection to homes, property, architecture, construction, interiors, and local services. It is a descriptive generic extension rather than a country-code domain.
Who can register a .haus domain?
haus is open to everyone, with no location, residency, professional, or industry eligibility condition. Individuals, businesses, organisations, and community projects may register an available name. Names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis through the registry.
Are there restrictions or required documents for registering .haus?
There are no eligibility documents required for a standard .haus registration. The name must be available and its label must contain between 1 and 63 characters. The registry also supports a range of Latin accented characters, including German ß.
Is .haus a good choice, and what kinds of projects suit it?
haus is a strong fit when housing or property is central to the project. It suits architects, builders, estate services, interior designers, accommodation providers, housing communities, renovation specialists, and personal home projects that benefit from an immediately descriptive address.
When does .haus make more sense than .com?
haus makes more sense when clear association with homes, buildings, or property matters more than universal familiarity. .com is broadly recognised and works across industries, while .haus gives the name a narrower, more expressive meaning. That specificity helps relevant projects but may be less suitable if the business later expands beyond housing.
How quickly is .haus registered, and how long does registration last?
Registration is requested through host.yt, and available names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Processing status and the registration term offered for the order are presented during the registration flow. Submitting promptly reduces the chance that another applicant claims the same name first.
How do I transfer a .haus domain to host.yt?
Disable the transfer lock with your current registrar and obtain the domain’s authorisation code. Provide that code when ordering the transfer to host.yt. The process may take several days. Once completed, one year is added to the domain’s expiration date.
