Overview & Registration Guidelines

The .COM.AU domain extension is Australia's primary commercial second-level domain, managed by auDA (au Domain Administration). One of the most strictly regulated commercial ccSLDs globally — registration requires a valid Australian Business Number (ABN), Australian Company Number (ACN), or a registered trademark matching the domain name. This eligibility policy ensures that .com.au domains are held by legitimate Australian businesses, contributing to high consumer trust. Hosts over 3 million active registrations and is the dominant extension for Australian e-commerce and corporate web presence. It requires a minimum label length of 2 characters and supports up to 63 characters. It does not support IDN characters, meaning only standard English characters are allowed. Registration is completely open and unrestricted globally to individuals and organizations.
