.fr domains are France's country-specific domain extensions, governed by unique rules and requirements. Here's what you need to know:

Registration Requirements:

• .fr domains require a business or professional presence in France
• Double-check your domain for typos before registering as there's no grace period or refund option
• Domain transfers include one new year of registration but won't carry over remaining time from previous providers

Expiration Policies:

For Tucows-registered domains:

• No automatic renewal available
• 30-day redemption period to contact Tucows directly for renewal
• Domains return to Tucows after expiration

For Key-Systems domains:

• 30-day renewal window after expiration
• Once removed from account dashboard, restoration may not be possible
• Contact support to verify domain reactivation eligibility

Important Notes:

• Transfer completion date becomes the new annual renewal date
• Whois privacy options may vary
• Domain pricing varies; check the domain search page for current rates
• Third-party connected domains aren't subject to these specific guidelines

When transferring to Squarespace, ensure you understand these requirements to maintain uninterrupted domain service. Regular monitoring of expiration dates is crucial to prevent domain loss.

Note: For detailed pricing information, use the domain name search tool or check your domains dashboard.
