Yep, that's it.
Although keep in mind small cheap BT dongles generally have bad connectivity, so I strongly recommend putting a cheap 1.5m-3.0m USB extender between the motherboard and BT dongle. You don't have to keep dongle close to you, just roll up the extender and place it right on the PC. The whole extender will act like one big BT antenna for your BT dongle and a connection will be awesome. Did help me, did help a Canadian guy I talked to - will definitely help you.
DS3 and DS4 here.

Hey, it's right on the Gigabyte website on your motherboard's description page. It's actually most like laptop thing, desktop mobos don't usually have it.

I thought you were asking if there's a built-in BT in your mobo.
If the question is will it support a BT donge - absolutely, it's just yet another USB device. USB got that "universal" in the name for a reason.

So it works, the final question. That usb will stay in the USB extender forever or just when I install it?

It doesn't matter how you first install the dongle, the point is to have extender between the mobo and the dongle whenever you want to play wirelessly. Basically - plug extender in the mobo, plug dongle in the extender, roll it up, tie it up so it's be a handy circle, place it on PC or somewhere nearby and that's it, let it be.

its the case that causes more problesm wiith usb wifi/bt/2.4ghz dongles
get a short 1-3-6ft usb extension cable (usb 2.0 or 3+) to move the dongle farther from the pc for better range

I wanted first to buy the wireless adapter for PS 4 but I can't find it here in Romania and on Amazon it's 100 dollars in total with the transportation which is kinda...expensive...
