Frequently Asked Questions

What is Punycode?
A way to convert Unicode domains (such as Persian letters) into a DNS-compatible ASCII form that begins with xn--.
Why does a Persian domain become xn--?
DNS fundamentally understands only ASCII; so Persian/Unicode domains are converted to Punycode behind the scenes to work.
