The new rules streamline our existing policies and guidelines and make some key changes to maintain and build trust and confidence in .au.
One change relates to how registrants meet the Australian presence test for a com.au and net.au licence.
Under the new rules, if a foreign-based registrant (such as a foreign company selling products online to people in Australia using a com.au or net.au domain) is using an Australian trademark to meet the Australian presence test, the com.au or net.au domain name needs to be an exact match of that registrant’s trade mark.
This helps strengthen trust in com.au and net.au domains by making the relationship between the domain name and the foreign holder of an Australian trademark clearer.
In this post we’ll look at what the change means and what you can do if you’re affected by it.
