Further to our notification on 15 January 2008, we have been notified by the Australian Business Register (http://www.abr.business.gov.au) that the outage to their ABN/ACN Look Up Tool used for the policy checking of .au domain name registration applications has been extended to 7am Tuesday 29 January 2008 (AEDT).

As we are unable to validate the registrant entity ABN/ACN details provided on .au domain registration applications, no registrations for .au domain names will be submitted to the registry during this period. Automated policy checking will resume once the maintenance has been completed; any queued applications will then be submitted to the registry.
Please note that if a policy check fails, and we are unable to verify the registrant entity using the ABN/ACN Look Up Tool, the domain registration application will be manually checked by our provisioning team once TPP Internet resumes business at 9am on Tuesday 29 January 2008.
We apologise for the inconvenience caused.
Should you have any questions please contact your account manager on 1300 665 491 or email partners@tppinternet.com.
