    About .uz domain

    .uz is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) delegated for Uzbekistan. It was first created and delegated on April 29, 1995, making it one of the earlier ccTLDs established in the post-Soviet region. Registry administration was initially handled by an individual, then transferred through Tomas LLC under Euracom Equipment GmbH, before being redelegated to UZINFOCOM following an appeal to ICANN and IANA in 2002. Today, UZINFOCOM — formally the Single Integrator for Creation and Support of State Information Systems — serves as the registry operator and administrator. Registrations are accepted directly at the second level, and a structured set of third-level domains also exists beneath several second-level categories.

    Who can register .uz domain

    .uz is an open registration domain — any individual or legal entity, regardless of nationality or location, has the right to register a domain name directly at the second level. There are no geographic or citizenship requirements for standard .uz registrations. However, certain second-level categories carry specific eligibility rules: .gov.uz is reserved for state institutions, .edu.uz requires a valid educational license, .ac.uz is for research institutions and universities, .net.uz is for organizations involved in internet development projects, .org.uz is for non-profit organizations, .int.uz is for international organizations, and .pp.uz is designated for individuals. Registration must be carried out through one of the 25 accredited registrars authorized to operate in the .uz domain zone.

    How to register .uz domain

    1. Search for your desired .uz domain name using a registrar accredited for the .uz zone. Check availability at the second level (e.g., yourbrand.uz) or under a relevant third-level category such as .com.uz or .org.uz if your organization type qualifies.

    2. Compare the offerings of accredited registrars, keeping in mind that registration terms range from 1 to 10 years. Review renewal pricing carefully, as introductory and renewal rates may differ between providers.

    3. Complete the checkout process through your chosen registrar, providing accurate contact and organization details as required. WHOIS accuracy is important under the registration regulations governing the .uz domain zone.

    4. After registration, verify your contact details and configure your DNS settings to point to your hosting or services. Ensure your registration information remains up to date throughout the registration period to stay compliant with registry policies.

    Typical uses of .uz domain

    .uz domains are most commonly used by businesses, organizations, and individuals with a presence in or connection to Uzbekistan who want a locally recognized web address. Commercial companies often register directly at the second level or under .com.uz, while non-profits gravitate toward .org.uz and educational institutions use .edu.uz. Beyond Uzbekistan, the extension has found a creative secondary use in Latvia, where it serves as a URL shortener domain — notably ej.uz — taking advantage of the short, memorable two-letter suffix. Registrants who want a concise, internationally available domain with no residency restrictions also find .uz attractive as a brandable alternative to more crowded extensions.

    Tips for registering .uz domain

    • Registration terms range from 1 to 10 years, giving registrants flexibility to lock in longer periods and reduce the risk of accidental expiration.
    • A Redemption Period service was introduced in September 2019, allowing former domain owners to reclaim an expired domain in their own name after the registration period ends — providing a safety net against losing a domain to third parties immediately upon expiry.
    • Domain names must consist of letters a–z, numbers 0–9, and hyphens; hyphens cannot be used as the first or last character, and names must be more than one character in length.
    • If you intend to register under a restricted second-level category (such as .edu.uz, .gov.uz, or .ac.uz), confirm your eligibility and any documentation requirements with the relevant administrator before attempting registration.
    • With 25 accredited registrars operating in the .uz zone, pricing and service features can vary — comparing multiple registrars before committing is worthwhile, especially for multi-year registrations.

    Who can register a .uz domain?

    Registration is open to any individual or legal entity worldwide — there is no requirement to be a resident of or have a business connection to Uzbekistan for standard second-level .uz registrations. However, if you wish to register under a specific second-level category such as .edu.uz or .gov.uz, you must meet the eligibility criteria set by the administrator of that category. Registration must be completed through one of the officially accredited registrars authorized to operate in the .uz domain zone.

    Can I transfer a .uz domain between registrars?

    Inter-registrar transfers for .uz domains are handled through the accredited registrar network operating under UZINFOCOM's regulations. Before initiating a transfer, confirm that your domain is not within a transfer lock period that may apply after initial registration or a recent transfer. It is advisable to ensure your contact details and authorization credentials are current and accurate before beginning the transfer process, as discrepancies can delay or block the transfer.

    What happens to a .uz domain after it expires?

    Since September 2019, .uz operates a Redemption Period service that gives the original domain owner the right to reclaim their expired domain before it becomes available to other registrants. This grace window provides protection against losing a domain to cybersquatters immediately after expiry. Registrants should check the specific redemption timeframe and any associated fees with their registrar, as these details can vary by provider.

    Are there content or usage policies enforced for .uz domains?

    Domain registration and use in the .uz zone is governed by the "Regulations on the procedure for registration and use of domain names in the UZ domain," which all accredited registrars and registrants must follow. Registrants are expected to maintain accurate WHOIS contact information throughout the life of their registration. Specific second-level categories such as .gov.uz and .edu.uz carry additional usage restrictions tied to the type of organization operating the domain.

    Can .uz domains be registered for short-term or single-year periods?

    Yes, .uz domains can be registered for as little as one year, making short-term registration accessible for projects, campaigns, or testing purposes. The maximum registration term is 10 years, which can be useful for established brands wanting long-term security. Regardless of the term chosen, renewal pricing and policies should be confirmed with your registrar before purchase, as rates may differ from the initial registration price.
