Between 23:00 – 24:00, Friday 27 February 2009 AEDT, we will be conducting maintenance on our infrastructure that will affect our connection to the .au registry.

During the outage window, the .au WHOIS and availability checker will be unavailable via our website and Online Management System, as will transactions involving .au registrations, renewals, transfers, delegations and contact updates. At the completion of the outage, all .au services will be restored.

We apologise for the inconvenience.

There’s a new way to communicate! TEL is a new, global domain, similar to .com, that puts businesses on the map. Don’t miss out – start selling .TEL domains now!

What’s the benefit of a .TEL domain?

• .TEL allows you to publish your contact information and keywords under your domain name
• Clickable data so your customers can communicate with you instantly from any internet device, via phone, fax, or email
  
• Store your contact information, content or navigation links, geolocation and keywords under your .tel domain.
• No need for a website – if all you want to publish is some basic information, simply register mycompany.TEL!

When do I register .TEL domains for my customers?

• Landrush Period – Don’t let your domain get away! Pre-register NOW until 23 March 2009.
  
• General Availability - all remaining .TEL domains will be open for registration from March 24.

How do I register .TEL domains for my customers?

Simply register your domain through our Online Management System. Not a TPP reseller yet? Sign up here. We will let you know within a short period of time whether the application has been successful. Please view our Terms and Conditions.

Our order flow and Online Management System will be available during this time to submit new orders and changes, however please note that these changes will not be processed in the registry until the completion of the maintenance window.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
