.au 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 webname and you cannot have two hyphens in a row. Spaces and special characters (such as !, $, &, ë, and so on) are never permitted. The minimum length is 2 characters and the maximum length is 63 characters (excluding the "http://www" portion).
It is not possible to register directly in the second level of .au (such as mycompany.au). The naming rules for .au require registrations under second-level categories that describe a type of entity. .com.au, for example, is designed for commercial entities. This follows a similar allocation policy to that used in other countries such as the United Kingdom and New Zealand.

Only Australian companies can register .au extensions.
