.vet

.vet is a generic top-level domain with two common meanings: veterinarian and veteran. Both are widely recognized, so the intended interpretation depends strongly on the name before the dot.

The extension can suit veterinary clinics, animal-care services, veterinary education, veteran organizations, support communities and personal sites for military veterans. A clear second-level name helps avoid confusion between the two meanings.

The TLD is not restricted to licensed veterinarians or verified veterans. ICANN lists .vet under a standard non-sponsored Registry Agreement, so the domain itself should never be treated as proof of professional credentials or military service.

In veterinary use, local licensing and medical standards still apply. In veteran-related use, organizations should avoid implying official government or military affiliation without authorization.

VYR classifies .vet as open, subject to registry and ICANN policies, reserved names and third-party rights.
