How do I check when my domain expires?

Enter your domain above and press Check. We look up the official registration record and show the exact expiry date, no signup.

What happens if my domain expires?

Your website and email can stop working, and after a grace period someone else can register the name. A reminder well ahead of time avoids all of that.

Is this domain checker free?

Yes, with no signup. To get automatic reminders before any of your domains lapse, add them to a free SSLCanary account.

What is a WHOIS or RDAP lookup, and how do I check a domain's expiration date?

A WHOIS or RDAP lookup queries the registry's public record for a domain, including its expiry date. RDAP is the modern, structured replacement for WHOIS. Enter your domain above and we read that date for you.

Can I renew an expired domain?

Usually yes, during a grace or redemption period after expiry — but it can cost far more and isn't guaranteed. Don't rely on it: renew early, well before the expiration date, to keep the name safely yours.

We ask the registry

We query the registry live over RDAP — the modern WHOIS replacement — with a WHOIS fallback for TLDs that need it.
