Members of the PEDNR WG,

ICANN Compliance recently completed an audit of all registrar websites to 
establish if they were compliant with the Expired Domain Deletion Policy as it 
relates to fees charged to registered name holders for recovering domain names 
that have entered the Redemption Grace Period (RGP) (please refer to section 
3.7.5.6 of the EDDP).  A large number or registrars- close to 500 of them- 
posted information on their websites in relation to recovering domain names 
that are in RGP which either either did not mention fees or mentioned them but 
did not specify any amount (e.g., "fees will apply").

The EDDP requires registrars to post on their website the actual fees charged 
to registered name holders for recovering domain names that are in RGP.  
Compliance will be posting an advisory and reaching out to registrars in the 
very near future to clarify this requirement.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

William A. McKelligott
