New .au Direct Names
Are now available via the standard online application form.
Contested .au Direct Priority Applications
Any remaining contested .au direct domain names will only be allocated when:
- an agreement is reached between the remaining applicants, or
- only one active application remains.
You can view the remaining applicants via the auDA Priority status tool.
To broker an agreement, you can contact the other applicant(s) using publicly available registrant contact details, by searching their domain name on the official WHOIS website.
Where an agreement is reached, the applicant(s) opting out will need to withdraw their application(s) via the auDA Priority webpage. Withdrawing an application is final and cannot be reversed. Once all other applicants have opted out, the remaining application will be allocated for an initial one-year licence.
If an agreement cannot be reach between the remaining applicants by 20 September 2023, you will need to extend your interest by renewing the .au direct domain name for a further year. A renewal fee of $22.00 (inc. GST) applies.
