Eligibility
To register a .melbourne domain name, you must meet one of the three eligibility criteria in the .melbourne Registration Policy and be the intended beneficiary of the domain name:
- Victorian entities: an organisation registered with ASIC or the Australian Business Register that has an address in Victoria linked to its ABN, ACN, RBN or ARBN, or a valid corporate address in Victoria;
- Victorian residents: an Australian citizen or resident with a valid address in Victoria; or
- associated entities: an entity the registry accepts as associated with Victoria, for example because it sells products, provides services or training, or organises events or activities in Victoria.
Associated entities can only register a name that is an exact or partial match, abbreviation or acronym of their registered business name or the name they are commonly known by, or of a product, service, event, activity or course they offer in Victoria. Victorian entities and residents do not have this extra name rule.
You must not use any third party or service, such as a privacy or proxy service, to hide the identity of the true registrant. Your details must be accurate, and you must give your registrar any changes within 14 days.
You must keep meeting the policy while you hold the domain name. Check that you meet the current .melbourne Registration Policy before you register.
Important: This is a general summary only. The .melbourne Registration Policy sets the full requirements and can change. Check the current policy before registering.
