How many synchronized IDN ccTLDs can I request?
As the Fast Track limitation rules are still in effect for synchronized IDN ccTLDs, the maximum number for any requester is still one per script or language that is official in the country or territory corresponding to the request. Due to the nature of synchronized IDN ccTLDs, there must be at least two IDN ccTLDs that are synchronized to each other. This implies that a country or territory must have a minimum of two official languages or scripts in order to be eligible for synchronized IDN ccTLDs. ICANN understands that these limitations do not resolve all issues currently present concerning variants of IDN ccTLDs, but it is a first step allowing for delegation of variants of IDN ccTLDs in a limited and careful approach. ICANN will continue work to address the remaining issues, in particular with a goal of allowing delegation of other IDN TLD variants, aliasing or sameness in a broader scale. In that work, ICANN will follow the work of the DNS Extensions (DNSEXT) working group of the
