LBÂ will be introducing a few changes to the default renewal tenure for .EU domains effective from August 3, 2015. These changes have been made as a result of the updates made by the .EU Registry.
Here are the updates:
- .EU domains will now follow a life cycle similar to that of gTLDs
- Domains registered before September 15, 2014, will expire on the 2nd last day of the expiring month and will then go through a 25 day Renewal Grace Period. On non-renewal, the domains will be deleted and will need to be restored within 40 days
- Domains registered after September 15, 2014, will expire on the same day as the date of registration in the expiring month and will then go through a 25 day Renewal Grace Period. On non-renewal, the domains will be deleted and will need to be restored within 40 days
- If any domain is renewed BEFORE the domain goes into quarantine, the expiry date will be extended by 1 year. If the domain is renewed / reactivated AFTER it goes into quarantine, the expiry date will be extended by 2 years
- Also, post August 3, 2015, the expiry date that will be shown on the system will be the date on which the domain expires
