.gq is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Equatorial Guinea. Freenom relaunched the TLD on October 1, 2014, and domains became available for free on January 1, 2015.[1][2] Following Freenom's lawsuit with Meta and its settlement in 2024,[3] it is unclear who will take up registration of the domain, as the company announced it would be exiting the domain business.
The .gq registry allows the creation of emoji domain names.
