.eus is the top-level domain for the Basque language. The abbreviation eus comes from the Basque endonym euskara, meaning "Basque language". Previously to its creation, .eu (European Union) domain was also used for this purpose, although unofficially.
In 2008, dotCYMRU, dotEUS, dotSCOT, and dotBZH formed . On 10 June 2013, ICANN approved the creation of the domain.[2] Use of the domain name was restricted until March–April 2014. However, ICANN facilitated an eus qualified launch program that allowed certain websites to claim a .eus domain before this General Registration date.[3]
As of March 2020, there were 10,030 active domains in the .eus domain zone.[4]
