What a .gr domain renewal really costs

The price you see first is usually the registration price. The one you keep paying, every two years for as long as you keep the domain, is the renewal. Here is how to read a .gr renewal price, and what it adds up to over the years.

Updated

Two things to check in any price list

  1. Per year or per two years? The .gr registry registers and renews names in two-year blocks, but some registrars show a price per year. Double it to get what you actually pay.
  2. Registration or renewal? A low headline price is often for new registrations only. The renewal price is usually further down the list, and it is the one you keep paying.

What ten years of a .gr adds up to

Ten years of a .gr are five two-year periods, so multiply the renewal price per two years by five:

15€ + VAT per 2 years (Domainwise)
75.00€ + VAT
20€ per 2 years
100.00€
30€ per 2 years
150.00€

How Domainwise prices a .gr

Registration, renewal, and the first renewal after a transfer all cost 15€ + VAT for two years. There is no lower first period that goes up later. Transferring a .gr in is free. Two-letter names are priced separately.

Already paying more for your renewal somewhere else? Moving the domain keeps its expiry date and costs nothing. Read how the transfer works.

Questions

Why does a .gr renewal cost more than the registration?

Many registrars advertise a low price for new registrations and charge their regular price at renewal. At Domainwise registration and renewal cost the same: 15€ + VAT for two years.

Is a .gr renewed every year?

No. The .gr registry renews names in two-year blocks, so a renewal always covers at least two years.

What happens if I don't renew in time?

After the expiry date there is a 15-day period in which only the current holder can still renew the domain. After that, anyone can register it.
