Register .photos Domain Name

How are domain-names renewed or cancelled?

.photos domains are always renewed automatically. You will receive a notification about the upcoming expiry date 90, 60, 30, and 14 days before expiration. In order to be able to renew a .photos domain, sufficient credit on the customer's account is required. All notifications will therefore also include the current balance and the amount required for renewal. The address for delivering these notifications can be set in the customer-center. If a domain name is no longer to be renewed, it can be terminated without bureaucracy in the customer center.

What happens if you do not respond to the renewal notification?

If the customer account does not have the required balance during the extension period of the domain name, no automatic renewal can take place. The .photos domain will be suspended at the expiration date in this case. A suspended domain is no longer available and can therefore no longer be used for websites, e-mails, or other previously associated services. A suspended .photos domain is still renewable. In the 30 days after the expiration of the paid service period, this is possible in exchange for the renewal fee and the fees for the domain-recovery (Undelete: gTLDs).

When will my domain be deleted?

If the suspension period of 30 days expires unused, the domain is deleted. Even deleted .photos domains can still be recovered. In addition to the renewal fee, fees will be charged for the domain-recovery (Restore: gTLDs) in the 30 days after deletion.
