What is a .dev domain?
.dev is a clean, secure home for developers, tools, documentation, and portfolios. Like .app, it enforces HTTPS by default for a secure-by-design experience.
Use it for your personal site, an open-source project, or your team's engineering presence.

Registering a .dev
Search for the name you want, add it to your cart, and check out. Once payment is confirmed, your .dev is registered with the registry — usually within minutes — and appears in your dashboard with managed DNS, free WHOIS privacy, and renewal reminders ready to go.
Transferring a .dev
Already own a .dev elsewhere? Unlock it at your current registrar, grab the authorization (EPP) code, and start the transfer with Orbit. Your remaining registration time comes with you, and most transfers add another year to keep you covered.

.dev questions, answered
- Who can register a .dev domain?
- Anyone can register a .dev domain through Orbit, subject to availability and the registry's standard requirements. Just search for the name you want and check out.
- How long does it take to go live?
- Most .dev registrations are active within minutes. DNS changes you make afterwards propagate across the internet shortly after you save them.
- Can I transfer my .dev domain to Orbit?
- Yes. If your .dev domain is unlocked and past any initial registration lock, you can transfer it to Orbit and keep your remaining registration time.
- Is WHOIS privacy included?
- Free WHOIS privacy is included on every eligible .dev domain, keeping your personal contact details off public records.
- Does .dev require HTTPS?
- Yes. Google Registry requires HTTPS on all .dev domains through HSTS preload.
