Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Official Domain Name Drop List?

To assist potential Registrants with their secure, expired or deleted .au Domain Names, AusRegistry generates a daily Domain Name Drop list. This list details the date and time-expired, and deleted Domain Names, which become eligible for purging (removed from the Registry System) and therefore available for registration.

Management of expired and deleted Domain Names is in accordance with auDA Policy, in particular the Domain Renewal, Expiry and Deletion Policy.
