Domains pending delete

These names are in "pendingDelete" status or in the redemption period. The countdown shows when the registry is expected to release them – to the hour for generic extensions, with greater variance for country-code extensions depending on the registry.

Filters and sorting

No entry for this selection

There can be two reasons for this: the filters are set too narrowly, or the registry has not delivered any data for this period yet. Both cases can be checked in a few clicks.

  • Lower the minimum score or remove it entirely.
  • Widen the length limit by two or three characters.
  • Lift the restriction to dictionary words.
  • Choose a related extension – many names are still available there.

What the countdown means – and what it does not

The time shown is the earliest moment at which the registry can release the name for re-registration. It is derived from the RDAP record and the contractually defined periods of the respective extension. Registries process deletions in batches, however, so the actual release can happen a few minutes later.

Important: until the redemption period expires, the previous owner can restore the domain at any time. A running countdown is therefore no guarantee that the name will actually become available. If you want to be sure, put the domain on your watchlist – we then check it continuously via RDAP and get in touch as soon as the status changes.
