.eus registration
.eus is the domain extension for the Basque linguistic and cultural community. It suits individuals, organisations, businesses, publications and cultural projects that want to express a clear connection with the Basque language or identity. Registration is handled on a first-come, first-served basis. Applicants must state the domain’s intended use, and the registry may request further holder information to verify compliance with its rules. A .eus name can contain between 1 and 63 characters. Before registration, host.yt checks whether the requested name is available and collects the holder details and intended-use information required for the application. Choosing a name connected to your activity, location, publication or organisation helps visitors understand the purpose of the website immediately. To transfer an existing .eus domain to host.yt, first remove any transfer protection at the current registrar and obtain the domain’s authorisation code. The transfer can take several days to complete. Once finalised, one year is added to the domain’s existing expiry date, so the remaining registration time is preserved. Changing the registered holder uses a separate authentication process. Confirmation emails are sent to both the current and future holders, and each party must complete the required validation. If the confirmations are not completed within five days, the request is cancelled. A holder change does not alter the domain’s expiry date.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .eus extension stand for?
eus represents Euskara, the Basque language, and the wider Basque linguistic and cultural community. It gives websites a recognisable digital identity connected with Basque language, culture and society, making it particularly relevant for cultural bodies, local businesses, media, community initiatives and personal projects.
Who can register a .eus domain?
Individuals and organisations with a Basque-language or Basque cultural purpose can apply for a .eus domain. Names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. The holder must provide the intended use of the domain so the registry can assess the application under its registration rules.
Are there restrictions or required documents for registering .eus?
Registration follows the standard first-come, first-served process, but the intended use of the domain is mandatory. The registry may also request additional holder information to identify the applicant and verify compliance with its rules. Accurate contact and purpose details should therefore be supplied with the order.
Is .eus a good choice, and what projects suit it?
eus is a strong fit for projects centred on the Basque language, culture or community. Suitable uses include local businesses, cultural associations, educational resources, regional media, events and personal websites. Its value comes from communicating that connection directly through the web address.
When does .eus make more sense than .com?
eus makes more sense when Basque identity, language or community relevance is central to the project because the extension communicates that focus immediately. .com offers broader global familiarity but carries no Basque meaning. Choose .eus for cultural precision and .com when a neutral international identity matters more.
How quickly is .eus registered, and how long does it last?
Registration can proceed after the name is confirmed as available and the required holder and intended-use information has been accepted. The applicable registration term and expiry date are confirmed with the order. The domain remains active through that term and can be renewed before expiration.
How do I transfer a .eus domain to host.yt?
Disable transfer protection at your current registrar, request the domain’s authorisation code and submit it to host.yt with the transfer order. Completion may take several days. When the transfer finishes, one year is added to the existing expiry date, preserving the domain’s remaining registration time.
