FAQ
What happens after the domain name expires?
When a domain name exceeds the 90-day grace period without renewal, it will be reclaimed and enter the premium period.
If you renew the domain within the grace period, you will continue to own the domain.
If the domain is reclaimed by the system and enters the auction period, and no bids are placed, the domain can then be publicly registered.
