auDA’s June 2026 registry statistics report 3,289,174 active .COM.AU names.
A .COM.AU registrant must meet auDA’s Australian Presence and commercial-entity requirements.

This view places the .COM.AU registrations alongside the major global domain categories so buyers can see its scale within the wider market.
The extension is strongest when the company can prove the required Australian connection and wants that local business identity to be visible to customers.
auDA positions COM.AU as the trusted namespace for commercial entities registered to do business in Australia.
Australian Presence and commercial-entity requirements distinguish COM.AU from unrestricted global extensions.
Allocation rules require the chosen name to match or relate to the registrant’s eligible name, trademark, goods, services, events, activities or premises.
Using the same June snapshot basis, auDA’s official registry reports show COM.AU growing from 3.15M names in 2023 to 3.29M in 2026.
The .COM.AU aftermarket has produced several six-figure USD-equivalent sales, particularly for category-defining commercial names with obvious business use.
Start with the eligible legal entity and Australian Presence, then choose a domain that clearly connects to the company, trademark, product, service, event, activity, or premises.
Use .COM.AU as the main web and email identity for a company with a valid ABN, ACN, or other qualifying commercial status.
A foreign entity may qualify through an Australian registered trade mark or application, subject to the exact allocation rules.
Use .COM.AU when Australian customers are the main audience and a local business signal supports trust and conversion.
Collect the customer’s qualifying Australian Presence and allocation basis before automating or submitting registrations.
If you already own .COM.AU domains elsewhere, transfer decisions should not be based only on one renewal invoice. Check transfer eligibility, ownership access, billing reliability, support response time, API needs, and long-term domain management.
Paste multiple .COM.AU names, remove duplicates, review the count, and continue to bulk registration. This is useful for domain investors, brand teams, agencies, hosting providers, and resellers.
Enter one name per line, with or without .COM.AU. The tool removes duplicates and prepares a clean list for bulk registration.

Review Australian Presence, commercial-entity eligibility, ABN/ACN or trademark evidence, name-allocation rules, licence terms, transfers, and reseller workflows before registering .COM.AU.
A .COM.AU registrant must be an eligible commercial entity with Australian Presence under auDA’s current licensing rules.
It is the validated connection to Australia required by auDA. Common business routes include an Australian Business Number (ABN), Australian Company Number (ACN), or a qualifying Australian trade mark, although the rules recognize additional eligible entity types.
Potentially. A foreign entity can qualify through an accepted Australian Presence route such as an Australian Registered Body Number or a qualifying Australian trade mark/application, subject to the relevant allocation rules.
The name must satisfy auDA’s allocation criteria. It can match or be an acronym of an eligible name or trademark, or have the required connection with goods, services, events, activities or premises associated with the registrant.
Current auDA rules allow licence periods of one, two, three, four or five years. Some providers may offer a subset of those terms.
auDA’s June 2026 registry statistics report 3,289,174 COM.AU names, making it the largest namespace within the Australian domain system.
auDA states that a registrant must remain eligible to hold the licence. If the ABN, ACN, trademark, or other qualifying basis is cancelled or no longer meets the rules, the COM.AU licence can become non-compliant.
Use NiceNIC domain transfer to confirm current .COM.AU support, transfer eligibility, and the registrant details required for the move.
NiceNIC provides bulk domain management and reseller API workflows for supported extensions. Customer onboarding should capture the Australian Presence and allocation basis before registration.
Register a new .COM.AU, transfer an existing domain, or upgrade your account level for bulk registration and reseller API use.
