Make your domain speak your language with GoDomains. Bring your digital identity closer to home by choosing a domain name in Arabic scripts. Whether you’re targeting a local audience or expressing your cultural roots, IDNs let you connect authentically — in the language your audience understands.
Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) are web addresses that use characters from non-Latin scripts, such as Arabic, Chinese, or Cyrillic, instead of just the English alphabet (A–Z).
Yes. IDNs are supported worldwide and work like any other domain name. They are encoded into Punycode behind the scenes so that the global Domain Name System (DNS) can read them.
Most modern browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) and email services support IDNs. Some older systems may display the Punycode version, but compatibility improves every year.
Simply search for your desired Arabic name using our IDN search tool. If available, you can register it instantly — just like a regular domain. The system will automatically handle the Unicode ↔ Punycode conversion for you.
Punycode is a special encoding system that converts domain names written in non-Latin scripts (like Arabic, Chinese, or Cyrillic) into the ASCII characters that the Domain Name System (DNS) understands. For example, موقع.com
becomes xn--4gbrim.com
. This ensures your IDN works everywhere on the internet.
Non-Latin scripts are writing systems that don’t use the standard English alphabet. Examples include Arabic (العربية), Chinese (中文), Cyrillic (Русский), and many more. IDNs allow you to register domains directly in these scripts, making the web more inclusive and culturally relevant.
ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard based on the Latin alphabet. It includes English letters (A–Z), numbers (0–9), and a limited set of symbols. The DNS was originally built to only understand ASCII, which is why Punycode is needed for IDNs.
Unicode is a universal standard for encoding text that supports virtually every writing system in the world, from Latin to Arabic to emojis 😊. Thanks to Unicode, IDNs can display domain names in native scripts while still working reliably online.
