How do I cancel a domain name?

Back to all questions and answers

If you want to cancel the right to use a .dk domain name, you must do so via the self-service portal on DK Hostmaster’s website, se below how.

Once you have cancelled the domain name, it will be suspended on the date from which you wish the cancellation to apply. The domain name is deleted after 30 days’ suspension.

Please note, that the cancellation is associated with a fee. See the current price in our price list.

  • If the cancellation fee exceeds a possible receivable, the remaining cancellation fee does not have to be paid.
  • If you have received an invoice for the domain name you want to cancel, you do not need to pay it.

When you cancel the registration of a domain name, it will afterwards be free to register for others.

Step 1

Choose "Cancel domain name" in the drop-down menu in the "Manage" column.

PLEASE NOTE! If you wish to cancel more than one domain name, you can find it under "Manage multiple domain names" in the bottom of the screen.

Step 3

PLEASE NOTE! If you are only the proxy of the domain name, the registrant must confirm the cancellation of the domain name before it can be carried out. The registrant will receive a request pr. email.
