From $21.95/year inc. GST · Free WHOIS privacy · Cloudflare DNS
Launched in 2022, .au is the newest way to be Australian online — and the shortest. Instead of yourname.com.au, you can simply be yourname.au: fewer characters, cleaner on a business card, and easier to say out loud. It carries the same Australian trust as .com.au with a more modern, concise feel that's ideal for new brands, startups and anyone who wants a sharp local identity.
Why register your .au with ModusOp
Short and memorable
Drop the .com — yourname.au is cleaner, easier to type and faster to say.
Unmistakably Australian
Same Australian-presence requirement and local trust as .com.au, in a modern form.
Cloudflare DNS + free privacy
Fast Cloudflare DNS and free WHOIS privacy included, managed from one dashboard.
Great for new brands
If your .com.au is taken — or you just want a fresher look — the matching .au is often available.
Who can register a .au domain?
Like .com.au, a direct .au domain requires an Australian presence — an ABN, ACN or registered Australian business name — which we verify automatically at checkout. If you already hold the matching .com.au, you had priority to register the .au during the launch period; now that that window has closed, available .au names are open to any eligible Australian entity on a first-come, first-served basis.
