2. Select the Domain
   In the Managed DNS portal, type the domain name in the Enter domain name field. You can also select it from the Recently Updated Domains list. To view every domain in your account, click the option for See All.  
   
   
   
   
3. Delete Domain
   Once you have clicked on the appropriate domain, you will be on the domain’s record page. Click Delete Domain to remove the domain from your account.
