What happens when a domain expires?

Your website and email stop working, and if nobody renews it, the domain is eventually released for anyone to register. The usual timeline for a .com:

  1. Expiry day: the site and email go offline. You can still renew at the normal price.
  2. Grace period (about 0–45 days): renewal still possible, depending on the registrar.
  3. Redemption period (about 30 days): recovery is possible but usually costs a lot more.
  4. Pending delete (5 days): nothing can be done.
  5. Released: anyone can register it, often domain investors who watch for expiring names.

How to never lose your domain

  1. Turn on auto-renew at your registrar and keep your payment card up to date.
  2. Renew for several years at once so there are fewer chances to miss it.
  3. Keep the transfer lock on so nobody can move the domain away from you.
  4. Get reminders. Add your website free and we’ll email you 30 and 7 days before it expires.

Domain Expiry Checker FAQ

What happens when a domain expires?

The website and email on it stop working. After a grace period (often 30 to 45 days) and a redemption period, the domain is released and anyone can register it.

How do I renew my domain?

Sign in to the registrar shown in the result, renew the domain and turn on auto-renew. Renewing for several years at once means fewer reminders.

What does “transfer lock” mean?

A locked domain cannot be moved to another registrar without the owner unlocking it first. Keeping it locked protects you from domain theft.

Can you remind me before my domain expires?

Yes. Add your website for free and we email you 30 days and 7 days before it expires.
