Upcoming Grace Deletion Policy Change
Starting on April 1, 2009, our Grace Deletion Policy will change due to ICANN's Add Grace Period Limits Policy announcement back in December 17, 2008. You can read ICANN's announcement here:
Advisory: Add Grace Period Limits Policy
http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-17dec08-en.htm
Only generic TLDs are affected by this policy:
- COM, NET, ORG, INFO, and NAME will start enforcing ICANN's AGP Limits Policy on April 1.
- ASIA and MOBI have delayed their adoption of ICANN's AGP Limits Policy until May 1, 2009.
- BIZ will not be changing their current grace deletion policy since they have already implemented ICANN's AGP Limits Policy last year.
- TEL will be enforcing ICANN's AGP Limits Policy on March 24, 2009 (General Availability).
Each TLD affected by this policy will be restricted to the following:
- The deletion rate will be limited to 10% of all new domain registrations for that TLD. (The 10% limit applies to our whole system.) Therefore, we cannot always guarantee a grace deletion.
- The deletion fee will be increased from $0.20 to $1.00.
Please note that we may opt to increase the deletion fee further depending on demand. A list of the current deletion fees will be shown on our Grace Deletions page:

If you want to be able to grace delete your domains under the old Grace Deletion Policy, please submit your grace deletions before March 30, 2009 5pm Pacific Daylight Time. We cannot guarantee that your domains will be deleted with the old Grace Deletion Policy after this date.
If you have any questions about these changes, please let us know either through email or on our forums at Dynadot.com.
