The .limo Domain: A Short Address for Chauffeured Travel
.limo entered the root zone on 12 December 2013 under an ICANN registry agreement dated 17 October 2013, and the contracting party today is Binky Moon, LLC. The four-letter ending names chauffeured luxury transport in a single word and keeps the address short. The nTLDstats page accessed on 12 August 2026 shows 2,815 registrations, of which 2,179 sit in the zone file.
Chauffeur hire firms, airport transfer services, wedding and event transport, corporate mobility providers and tour operators all use the zone. No eligibility condition applies and no documents are requested. Try candidates through a .limo domain search, and look at the travel-oriented .flights page.
In this zone the operator verifies no transport licence and no passenger-carrying authority; because the agreement carries an open registration commitment, no limit based on identity may be set either. Chauffeured passenger transport, however, is a licensed activity in most countries: vehicle documentation, driver qualification and insurance duties arise from the activity, and a domain does not stand in for them. The same holds from the visitor's side: the address is not a mark of authority. So publish your licence details, insurance cover and cancellation terms openly on the page, because a corporate customer checks exactly those before signing.

.limo Domain Lifecycle
What happens day by day after it expires
Day 0 is the domain's expiry dateIn short: your .limo domain is put on Client Hold on its expiry date, so the site and e-mail stop that same day. You can still renew during the first 20 days, but from this point a late renewal fee is added on top of the renewal price. On day 20 the registration is deleted and until day 50 only a paid restore brings it back. Nothing at all can be done in the 5 days that follow, and on day 55 the name is open to anyone. There is exactly one way never to enter this chain: keep auto-renewal on.
Domain Is Available (Available)
A .limo address at this stage has not been taken yet, and it goes to whoever registers first. Check the name you have in mind — if it is free, it can be yours within minutes.
Domain Is Active (Active Period)
Once registration is complete, the domain is registered to you for the term you selected. You can renew at any point before it expires to keep it active, or switch on auto-renewal so you never have to watch the date.
Renewal Window (Client Hold)
On its expiry date your .limo domain is put on Client Hold: the site and e-mail go down that day, but the registration is still yours. A single renewal within these first 20 days brings everything back exactly as it was — nothing is lost. The only difference is that a $10.53 late renewal fee is now added to the renewal price; renewing before the expiry date avoids that fee entirely.
Redemption Period (Redemption / RGP)
On day 20 the registration is deleted and the 30-day redemption period that ICANN requires of every gTLD registry begins. The name is not released to anyone during this time; only you can take it back, by paying the restore fee, until day 50. That fee is far higher than a renewal — renewing on time is always the cheaper route.
Pending Delete (Pending Delete)
Once the redemption window closes too, the domain enters its final 5 days and there is no way back. Neither renewal nor restore works here; nobody — your registrar included — can return the name to you. The registry uses this window as the last hold before the name goes back into the pool.
Open to Anyone Again (Released)
On day 55 the name .limo returns to the pool and anyone can register it. Sought-after names are often gone within seconds, and there is no guaranteed way to get one back. Yet staying out of this timeline is entirely in your hands: leave auto-renewal on and the expiry date will never catch you off guard.
The timeline above is the schedule Atak Domain applies and publishes. The ICANN chart you will find elsewhere shows a renewal window of up to 45 days after expiry; ICANN's policy on expired registrations (section 2.2.1) lets registrars delete an expired domain at any time, provided they disclose their policy in advance. We apply that window as 20 days and publish it here in plain sight. Full text of the policy: ICANN Expired Registration Recovery Policy

Frequently Asked Questions About .limo Domains
The questions people actually ask before registering — answered plainly.
-
No. The operator performs no licence or authority check in this zone.
Because the agreement carries an open registration commitment, no limit based on identity may be drawn. Chauffeured passenger transport is nonetheless licensed in most countries; the documents you need arise from your activity and the address does not stand in for them. Publishing licence and insurance details on the page is both an obligation and a competitive advantage.
-
It makes sense when the transfer service runs under its own brand.
A separate address lets you measure the page aimed at airport searches independently of the main site. For a single operation, a sub-page structure usually needs less upkeep, since certificates, content and renewal dates stay in one place. Test candidates together through the bulk domain name search.
-
Small but not dormant; the published share is the better indicator.
Of 2,815 registrations, 2,179 sit in the zone file according to the nTLDstats page accessed on 12 August 2026, roughly 77 percent. The large majority of registered names are genuinely in use. The consequence favours you: stems combining a city name or a service description remain free and competition is low.
-
Pricing conditions, waiting time and cancellation rules need to be readable in the text.
Burying that information inside the booking form alone means neither a search engine nor a screen reader can see it. If you collect identity and flight details, the page must carry a certificate; a passenger who meets a browser warning at that step abandons the booking. Review the options on the SSL certificate page.
-
Yes. The zone follows the standard gTLD transfer rules.
Lift the lock, obtain the authorisation code, then open the request at the receiving provider. Timing matters for booking sites: short interruptions can occur while name servers change, so plan the move outside peak season. Run the process from the domain transfer page.
