There is no longer a renewal grace period for .DE, .NL, .BE, .EU domains. This means that domain owners must ensure their domains are renewed at least 3 days prior to the expiration date to avoid losing them.
If a .de domain is not renewed 3 days before the expiration date, it will be deleted from the registry by the end of the same month, typically between the 28th and 31st. Then the domain will be placed into a redemption period and a redemption fee has to be paid to be able to restore the domain.
If you missed your domain renewal date, make sure to contact the WPX Support Team for further assistance.
.DE, .NL, .BE, .EU domains cannot be auto-renewed with WPX because automatic payments are processed on the expiry date of each domain. Make sure to pay the renewal invoices for .de domains manually at least 3 days before the expiry date.
For .DE, .NL, .BE, .EU domain owners, this policy shift makes timely renewal critical. It’s highly recommended to set reminders to ensure your domain remains active and secure.
WPX no longer offers country code domains for new registrations, however, if you still have yours with us, you can continue renewing it by following the above rules.
