Your domain name is your website address on the internet. It gives you an online presence, and is an important marketing tool that can help customers find your business. If you don’t yet have a website, you can register your domain name and keep it until you’re ready.

Before you register the name, you will need to have:

  • a unique web address (keep it easy to remember, spell and pronounce)
  • an Australian Business Number (ABN) or Australian Company Number (ACN), if you want a domain name that ends with '.au'

You should also check if your domain name is available using the Business name check tool.

To register a business domain name in Australia, you should visit the Australian Government Business.gov.au website and follow the steps.
