Free Domain Expiry Checker
Check when any domain expires — straight from the registry via RDAP.
Why a lapsed domain is a disaster
An expired domain takes the website and every email address with it — instantly. Worse, after a short grace period it can be auction-bought by anyone, and getting it back is expensive or impossible. Most lapses aren't decisions; they're a renewal email that went to an inbox nobody checks. For an agency managing dozens of client domains across different registrars, one missed renewal is a client-losing event — which is why VigilDog tracks every expiry date and warns you at 30, 14 and 7 days out.
Frequently asked
- What happens when a domain expires?
- The website and all email stop instantly, and after a short grace period anyone can buy the domain. Recovery is expensive or impossible.
- How early should I renew?
- Enable auto-renew and still monitor it — auto-renew fails silently when a card expires. VigilDog warns you 30, 14 and 7 days out.
- Why is the expiry date sometimes unavailable?
- Some country-code TLDs do not publish expiry via RDAP. For those, the registry simply does not expose the date publicly.
