.bq domain information

The .bq domain is the designated country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the Caribbean Netherlands, comprising the islands of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba. Although officially assigned, the .bq extension is currently not in active use or available for public domain registrations.

The domain was introduced following the dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles. However, to date, no public registration system has been implemented, and the .bq namespace remains inactive. Entities operating in these territories typically use other TLDs such as .nl or .cw.

Why should I register a .bq domain name?

  • Direct regional identity: instantly connects your brand or business to the Caribbean Netherlands, serving audiences in Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba.

  • Tourism & local business reach: ideal for resort operators, diving centers, local commerce, and municipal projects targeting visitors and residents of the BES islands.

  • Brand protection: secures intellectual property and brand presence within the Dutch Caribbean territory.

  • Exclusive strategic placement: as an unreleased/on-request ccTLD, securing pre-registration interest allows brands to prepare for potential future registry availability.
