About domain renewals

Domain renewal rules depend on the type of domain you have.

• .au domains (e.g., .com.au, .org.au): Due to registry rules, .au type domains can only be renewed within 90 days of their expiry date.
• gTLD domains (e.g. .com, .net, .org): These can usually be renewed at any time, even if they are not close to expiry. Many people choose to renew or extend them well in advance for peace of mind.
