Update your AU domain’s ABN

December 10, 2024 — Simon Kelly

Update your AU domain’s ABN

The Australian Domain Authority is enforcing strict eligibility rules, disabling domains where the ABN doesn’t match the business name.

If this happens, your website, email, and services could go offline.

To avoid this, follow these steps:

  1. Check your domain’s expiry date using the domain WHOIS tool
  2. Ensure your ABN is updated with your domain registrar (where you purchased your domain).

With a matching ABN and domain, your renewal will go smoothly, and your services will stay online.

This is not something to delay–check your domain to ensure that you avoid any service disruptions to your website and email.
