What happens when a domain expires? Print

Should you allow a domain to expire, you will be able to renew it for up to 30 days after the renewal date. During this time the domain will not be accessible so any website or email services associated with it will stop working.

After the 30 day grace period the domain will begin its deletion process and you risk losing the domain to another party.

It may be possible to reclaim the domain if it is still in its Redemption state prior to being deleted, however doing so will incur a Redemption fee of up to $400.00 plus your regular annual renewal fee. If your domain has been expired longer than 30 days and you need to renew it, please contact billing@varialhosting.com to inquire if this will be possible.

We strongly advise that you renew your domains on time to avoid any service interruptions or unexpected fees.
