• Upon Expiry of an .ES domain name ^{(Anchor: esrules)}:

  • any service such as email, website, etc., configured for this domain name would stop functioning, until the domain name is renewed.

  • the .ES Registry would email the Admin Contact listed in the Whois of the domain name, that the domain name has not yet been Renewed and if needed, the domain name owner may transfer their domain name under the .ES Registry and then Renew this domain name with them.

  • if the .ES domain name is not Renewed until 0 days, the domain name would get Deleted and would immediately be available for Registration.

• Upon Expiry of a .AU domain name ^{(Anchor: aurules)}:

With the exception of the following, all Domains are Auto-Renewed by their respective Registry upon Expiry:

• .BIZ

• .US

• .UK

• .EU

• .WS

• CentralNic domain names

• .TEL

• .NZ

• .CO 1

• .DE

• .ES

• .AU

In case of an Auto-Renewed domain name, the Registry Whois displays the Expiry Date one year ahead of the actual date on which the domain name has already expired.

To avoid this situation, the system's Parking action is on purpose left incomplete. The domain name would bear the following status at this stage:

Action Requested: Parking of <domain name>

Status of the action: Awaiting update at Registry

During this DNS Propagation period, your website may intermittently revert to the Parking Page and then change again to your actual website, depending on how ISP caches are refreshed. However, if you have already renewed your domain name, do not renew your domain name again. The Parking Page will automatically get removed as soon as the DNS propagation completes.
