'''.eus''' is a new [[gTLD|generic top level domain name]] (gTLD) proposal to the [[New gTLD Program]] of the [[ICANN]] by [[PuntuEus Association]]. The organization is dedicated to representing, preserving and promoting the endangered Basque language & culture by establishing its own online space and to serve as the registry operator of the TLD. <ref>[http://www.icann-studienkreis.net/iratxe.pdf The Basque Language and Culture on the Internet]</ref> <ref>[http://www.puntueus.org/en/news/presentation-of-the-puntueus-association/ Presentation of the PuntuEus Association]</ref>

It seems to be following the success of [[.cat]] as an [[sTLD]] for the Catalan community. "Eus is the contraction of “Euskara”, which means “basque language” in Basque." The organization has the written support of a wide-range of Basque centric entities. Puntueus Fundazioa plans to restrict registration to legitimate and well-inteioned actors within the Basque cultural-linguistic community; It will first seek out prominent entities in the community prior to general launch, and post general launch it will "[require registrants] to state their intended use of the registered domain name. A false statement of intended use is an indication of bad faith and can be the basis for the suspension of the domain name."<ref>Application 1-1293-15788</ref>
