About the .GU domain
What is the .GU domain?
It is not possible to register a name directly under .gu: registration happens at the third level, under labels such as .com.gu, .org.gu, .net.gu, .gov.gu, and .edu.gu. The applicant must be a business formally registered with Guam's Department of Revenue and Taxation, and must maintain genuine contact presence within the territory. Individuals, foreign entities, or businesses without this specific Guam registration cannot obtain a .gu domain. Naming rules also prohibit generic, vanity, or overly short names: requested second-level names must be at least four letters and directly tied to the applicant's business.
