Accidentally deleted my Vercel account. Is it possible to recover ownership of my domain?

Hi everyone,

I accidentally deleted the Vercel account that owned a domain I purchased through Vercel.

My primary concern is recovering ownership of the domain. I don’t need to recover the deleted account itself—I just want to regain access to manage and transfer the domain if possible.

I’ve already:

Contacted Vercel Support.

Created a new Vercel account.

Retained the original purchase receipt and invoice as proof of ownership.

Has anyone successfully recovered a domain after accidentally deleting the owning Vercel account?

Is it possible for Vercel to transfer the domain to my new account after verifying ownership?

Is there any other recovery process I should follow while waiting for support?

Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The domain troubleshooting guide can help with most custom domain configuration issues. You might be able to use that guide to solve it before a human is available to help you. Then you can come back here and share the answer for bonus points.

The support team can help with this as long as the domain isn’t expired. You should hear from them soon. But I can check the status if you have a case number
