You can change the ownership of a .AU domain by updating the registrant details in Domain Manager and completing the required authorisation. Changes to the registrant’s name, email address, business name, or business number are considered a change of ownership under auDA policy. Follow this guide to update your .AU domain ownership.

Important: This is only applicable for .AU domain names For other TLDs, read this guide: Change the Ownership of Your Vodien Domain.

To update your registrant details of your .au domain, follow these steps:

Access your Domain Manager.
Go to Administration tab.
Click on the Registrant Contact row, then click CHANGE OWNER.
Update the necessary registrant details (Business Name or Business Number, First and Last Name, Email Address).

Important: If you are changing the ABN, ACN or Other business number, make sure the new business number is valid and eligible for .au domain licensing.
Click on SAVE CHANGES. The Authorization screen will display.
Click on SEND AUTHORIZATION REQUEST.
- No changes on the registrant email. The verification email will be sent to the existing registrant email.
- The registrant email is changed. The verification email will be sent to both emails (previous and new registrant emails).
Access the registrant email to approve the changes (both previous and new if the registrant email is changed).

Important: The COO fee applies for ABN, ACN or Other business number changes, which will be paid by the previous registrant (losing registrant) during the approval process.

I don't have access to the existing registrant email

If you cannot approve the changes because you no longer have access to the current registrant email address, you will need to follow our Domain Access Recovery process to update it.
