+## When domain expires
+
+Azure deals with expiring or expired App Service domains as follows:
+
+* If automatic renewal is disabled: 90 days before domain expiration, a renewal notification email is sent to you and the **Renew domain** button is activated in the portal.
+* If automatic renewal is enabled: On the day after your domain expiration date, Azure attempts to bill you for the domain name renewal.
+* If an error occurs during automatic renewal (for example, your card on file is expired), or if automatic renewal is disabled and you allow the domain to expire, Azure notifies you of the domain expiration and parks your domain name. You can [manually renew](#renew-the-domain) your domain.
+* On the 4th and 12th days day after expiration, Azure sends you additional notification emails. You can [manually renew](#renew-the-domain) your domain.
+* On the 19th day after expiration, your domain remains on hold but becomes subject to a redemption fee. You can call customer support to renew your domain name, subject to any applicable renewal and redemption fees.
+* On the 25th day after expiration, Azure puts your domain up for auction with a domain name industry auction service. You can call customer support to renew your domain name, subject to any applicable renewal and redemption fees.
+* On the 30th day after expiration, you're no longer able to redeem your domain.
