Redemption

Generic top-level domain names enter a redemption period after they expire. They can enter this period anywhere between 1 and 45 days after their expiry date. The redemption period lasts for 30 days, and during this period, no changes can be made to the domain name configuration. Renewing the domain name during this period can be subject to an inflated renewal fee.

If the domain name is not renewed during the redemption period, it enters a queue pending deletion, and will eventually be deleted from the registry database. Once deleted, the domain will be available for anyone to register on a first-come, first-served basis.

.uk domain names have a similar period called the suspension period.
