This article explains the process required to transfer the ownership of your .AU domain name or update the registrant details.
- Click here to download the Change of Registrant form.
- To change the ownership of a domain name a $125.00 fee is payable.
- When a domain is transferred, the registrant must meet the criteria set out by auDA in their Transfers (Change of Registrant) Policy (2011-03).
- When domain ownership is transferred, the old registrant forfeits the remaining period of the 2 year registration license, and a new 2 year registration license will start from the time the transfer is completed.
The license holder (for example a company or person) who has authority/control over a .AU domain is the ‘registrant’ as listed in the domain’s WHOIS information. The process of transferring legal ownership of a domain from one registrant to another is called “Change of Registrant” (COR).
- To initiate the change, you must send a completed copy of the Change of Registrant form to support@visualmarketing.com.au. Please use the subject “Change of Registrant: example.com.au” in the email or cover letter.
- Once we have verified the request we will issue an invoice for $125 to the current owner.
Complete: After this invoice has been paid we will proceed with the Change of Registrant and the domain will be registered for two years.
