one of the issues I am having is it would appear you have to have an Australian business number to be able to register the domain *.com.au? The reason we are trying to register this kind of domain is a couple of customers are based in Aussie and dont like the fact that .nz means we can do it better than them :P ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Mott" <peter.mott(a)2day.com> To: <nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz> Sent: Monday, January 26, 2004 11:41 AM Subject: Re: [nznog] .com.au domains

You will REQUIRE an ABN (Aus business number) or ACN (Aus companies number), either of which will take you time and bother to get (And a fair whack of cash in the case of an ACN) and an Australian street address. Even if you have/or-get all of this, your domain will still need to reflect your brand. That is the rules. Been there, done that. Cheers. Michael Hallager Networkstuff Limited

The people who administer the com.au domain registry are notoriously slow, bureaucratic and inflexible. I think you are only allowed one domain per company as well....though this may have changed. This is probably why many *Australian* companies by-pass it / don't promote it - and just use something like: www.nz.anz.com ....for a real-world example.
