By default, transfers automatically expire after 7 days. It is possible to set a longer expiry date with different plans. Dropbox Professional and Advanced users can set an expiry date of up to 90 days, with the ability to extend that up to one year while the link is still ‘live’. Expired transfers are only visible to the sender, and are no longer accessible to anyone with the link.
