"Expire" is a current condition that may refer to a future event, so it's acceptable to use the present tense:

Her contract expires in February next year.

Use this instead of "getting expired", which is not idiomatic.

Otherwise you can use the future tense "will expire" or the (somewhat more awkward) participle variation "will be expired".

Her contract will expire in February next year.

Her contract will be expired in February next year.

Note that we use in for unspecified dates within a period, and on for specific dates:

Her contract expires on February 2nd of next year.

[Edit] As Michael Harvey suggests, the future perfect is also an option:

Her contract will have expired by February next year.
