What happens if my domain expires?

Below is the timeline of events once a domain expires.

• Day 0 Expired Domain: Domains that are not renewed and allowed to lapse are considered expired.
• Day 1-30 Lapsed Domain: Once expired you have 30 days to renew your domain.
• Day 31-60 Redemption Period: If you do not renew your domain in the lapsed period you can recover the domain during the redemption period for a fee.
• Day 65-67 Domain Release: 5-7 days after the redemption period the registry will release the domain as available to anyone who wants to register it.
