Can I get this domain after it expires?

RikkoWeb · May 3, 2020

Help…I’ve got my eye on a domain set to expire 20/10/2021. It’s registered with GoDaddy. What does this status info mean?
Status: clientDeleteProhibited
Status: clientRenewProhibited
Status: clientTransferProhibited
Status: clientUpdateProhibited

I’m assuming it means the owner isn’t going to be able to renew the domain.
Can the domain be purchasable by another client after expiring or has GoDaddy taken over?

Thats a privacy lock status.

That means currently its not listed for sale.

Wait till the expiry date to see if it get renewed or not.

The domain isn't owned by me, it is presently showing those status codes. My question is, will i be able to purchase the domain after it expires or will Godaddy claim ownership of the domain?

After the expiry date, sometimes the registrar will have a "grace" period for the owner to renew the domain, after that period, it will be free to be registered by anyone again.
