There are no restrictions at this time.

Neither are there special restrictions for the subdomains. Unless stated else.
- contain only letters (a-z), numbers (0-9) and hyphens (-), or a combination of these

- start and end with an alphanumeric character, not a dash.

- do not contain a dash on the 3rd and 4th position (tagged domains).
The minimum registration for a domain name direct under ".bs" is two year. The minimum registration under a subdomain (for example ".org.bs") is one year. In both situations the minimum renewal period is one year. The maximum registration period is 10 years, this period may not be exceeded.

If you want to register a ".bs" domain name and you are a citizen of the Bahamas or your company is established in the Bahamas, we would appreciate it if you could mention this during the registration of the domain name.

The domain name may not:
- infringe upon the rights of third parties.
- infringe upon intellectual property.
- be against the applicable law.
- be misleading.
