Prices exclude tax and are per extension: a name the registry flags as premium costs more. Rates are read from published registrar tariffs and refreshed daily.
A rare case: the price holds
Unlike most extensions, the .com renewal at Porkbun matches its registration price. You can plan the cost of this name without a surprise in year two.
Before you buy: is the name even free?
A price only matters once the domain is available. Onomatix checks that against the registry itself over RDAP — an HTTP 404 means no registration exists — and falls back to WHOIS on port 43 for extensions with no RDAP endpoint. That is a fact, not a cached guess.
