You can delete a domain name so that it is no longer registered to you. Depending on the type of domain name you delete, the registry might hold it before releasing it for other users to register. You might be able to re-register the domain name, subject to additional registration fees.

Deleting your domain name does not entitle you to a refund of any part of your registration fee.

WARNING: Deleting a domain name is a permanent action.
