Make it .au!

.AU is a recognised Australian top-level domain, available to anyone with a local presence. It allows you to register a short, modern and authentic domain name that works seamlessly with your website and email.

.AU Domains are Shorter and More Memorable

Unlike older Australian domains that require a second level, such as .com.au or .org.au. .AU domains give you a shorter and more memorable address. A direct .AU name makes it easier for people to recall your website, helping your brand stand out across digital and print media.

The Easiest Australian Domain to Share

Typing a .AU domain is quick and straightforward. With only two characters after the dot, it’s simple to share on social media, easy to display on marketing material, and effortless for customers to type in their browser.

A .AU Domain Shows You’re Australian

Shortening names is part of Australian culture, and the .AU extension reflects that. It removes the global identifiers like .com or .net and leaves you with a domain that is short, sharp, and unmistakably Australian.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a .AU different from .COM.AU?

A .COM.AU domain is designed for Australian businesses and requires an ABN or ACN to register. A direct .AU domain is shorter and more flexible, open to businesses, organisations and individuals with a local presence in Australia.

Can I transfer my .AU domain to another provider?

Yes. Like other domains, .AU names can be moved between accredited registrars. A standard domain transfer process applies, ensuring your website and email remain online without disruption.

What names can I register under .au direct?

Unlike existing Australian namespaces such as .com.au and .org.au, which have specific allocation criteria, no allocation criteria determine which names an eligible person can register in the .au direct namespace.

If you have an Australian presence, you can simply register a name of your choosing through an auDA-accredited registrar, subject to auDA’s licensing rules. The name will not need to match your name or be the name of an existing service, product, event, activity or premises that you provide.

Why should an Australian business register a .AU domain?

An .AU domain makes your business easier to find online, provides a modern and memorable web address, and reinforces your Australian identity. Many organisations register both .COM.AU and .AU to protect their brand and maximise visibility.

Can individuals register a .AU domain?

Yes. Any individual with an Australian presence can register a .AU domain name. This makes it a great option for personal websites, portfolios, blogs or email addresses.
