Here's the specific details: 1. The domain, if expired & not renewed, will ideally remain with the registrar (where the domain name is registered) between 1 to 45 calendar days. After which, they'll issue the command to the registry (the entity holding authoritative records for domain names based on their respective extensions) to delete it. 2. Once deleted from the registrar, the registry will put the domain name on REDEMPTION PERIOD / PENDING DELETE (Restorable - for .ORG, .INFO, .BIZ, & .US) for 30 calendar days. 3. After 30 calendar days, if not redeemed, the registry will ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-newbies/41546-pending-delete.html then put the domain name on PENDING DELETE for 5 calendar days. Ideally, it'll be released on the 6th day at approximately 2PM EST. The 3rd item is based on the appropriate registry's FAQ. But barring tech issues, it should happen as scheduled. Note everything happens on calendar days, not business days, fiscal days, or whatever! It won't get any more specific than that. Hope this helps! | ||||
