Once the domain name reaches five days after expiration, the registry puts the domain name on a hold status for approximately 40 days. During this time, it is not possible to update the name servers or make any other changes, including deleting or canceling the domain name. At the end of this hold period, the domain enters redemption, and an additional fee is required to renew the domain name.
