CAs can cache the record lookup for no longer than 10 days. After 10 days, they have to check it again. If the record is gone, which would be expected if the domain has expired or been transferred, then the authorization is no longer valid.

(I would have preferred a much shorter limit, like 8 hours, but 10 days is a lot better than the current 398 day limit for the original ACME DNS validation method.)

We (Let’s Encrypt) also agree 10 days seems too long, so we are migrating to 7 hours, aligning with the restrictions on CAA records.
