Become an accredited registrar

Learn how your organisation can become an auDA accredited .au registrar.

.au registrars are entities accredited by auDA to have direct access to the .au registry database. They offer .au domain name licence registration services and can process new registrations, renewals and updates to registration details directly in the .au registry database. They can also offer domain name licence registration services to .au resellers through contractual agreements.  

Accredited .au registrars play a key role in ensuring the .au country code Top Level Domain (ccTLD) remains highly trusted in the Australian community, and work with auDA to maintain its reputation as one of the world's most stable and secure ccTLDs. 

Organisations that would like to become an auDA accredited .au registrar must meet a range of best practice technical and security standards, and relevant obligations under Australian Federal law.
