Vanuatu is to attempt to broaden the appeal of its .vu domain globally by switching to a new shared registry system.

.vu is now delegated to country’s Telecommunications Radiocommunications and Broadcasting Regulator (TRBR), having been managed since 1995 by Telecom Vanuatu Limited (TVL). The government passed a law in 2016 calling for the redelegation.
