"How long does a registration last? Can it be renewed?

Each registrar has the flexibility to offer initial and renewal registrations in one-year increments, provided that the maximum remaining unexpired term shall not exceed ten years."
(http://www.icann.org/faq/#regtime)


How can Network Solutions offer 100 year registrations when the ICANN limit is 10 years?
 
Is there some sample domains that show the domain will last 100 years in their Whois?I think maybe nsi provide 100 years domain registration service,but they dont register it for 100 years at one time,they need renew domains some times for their customers so that domains could last 100 years.

Your domain at Netsol will not officially show a 100 years extension in the whois, just up to a maximum of 10 eg. 2014

You will have to trust Netsol to fulfill the 90 years it owes you.

Which is why everyone believes it is more a marketing gimmick and Jedi mind trick to hypnotise you to NEVER to let your domain names expire, no matter how crappy you think they are. .COM domains are currently at the 27 million mark. The objective, per original business model projections, is to move it to 150 million and make it stay there. Hope this explains.
 
Thanks..I would never consider purchasing 100 years but I found the very fact that they do it disturbing.

Thanks

Not only that, but the time beyond the next 10 is non-refundable and non-transferrable. This means you are either stuck with them as the registrar for 100 years or have to forfeit anything beyond the 10 year ICANN limit if you want to switch registrars.

Even the sentence for murder isn't that long... :-D
