> Renewal domain command status: Maximum registration period exceeded

That is due to a silly registry restriction where they allow a maximum of
10 years at any time.  If a domain is 13 days from expiration and you try
adding 10 years, that would make the term 10 years, 13 days and the
registry doesn't like that.

It does work if the domain is past the expiration date.  I've seen it in
action.

If someone wants to renewal for 10 years, our system adds the number of
years to get them just below the 10 year limit and then records a note to
add the remaining years(s) that is activated after the domain anniversary
date.
