Created page with "Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) ccTLDs are encoded domain names assigned to countries or geographic regions that are displayed in an end-user application in their language..."
Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) ccTLDs are encoded domain names assigned to countries or geographic regions that are displayed in an end-user application in their language-native script or alphabet, such as Arabic, or a non-alphabetic writing system, such as Chinese characters. Although the IDN class uses the term code, some of the ccTLDs are full words.
==History of IDN Fast Track==
At its Seoul conference in 2009, [[ICANN]] approved the [[IDN]] [[ccTLD]] Fast Track process, which allowed [[ccTLD]]s to be written in non-Latin characters. The IDN ccTLD Fast Track Process was launched on 16 November 2009. Eligible countries and territories were able to request their respective IDN ccTLD(s) through the process.<ref>[https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/fast-track-2012-02-25-en Fast Track Process]</ref>
The process entailed three steps:
#Preparations in country/territory
#String Evaluation
#String Delegation
Russia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates were some of the first countries to advance in the application and implementation process.<ref>[http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474978296758 Gather.com]</ref>
