Frequently Asked Questions

What are the valid characters and valid lengths for domain names?

.au Domain Names can contain the English-language letters A through Z, and the digits 0 through 9. You can also use hyphens, but hyphens cannot begin or end your Domain Name and you cannot have two hyphens next to each other. Spaces and special characters (such as !, $, &, ?, and so on) are never permitted.

The minimum length is 2 characters and the maximum length is 63 characters (excluding the "http://www" portion).
