The Internet is the best medium for an enterprise seeking internationalization, as it is able to provide the latest information regardless of time and location. However, when registering for a domain name in a new market, the most common problem faced by enterprises is not being able to secure an adequate, easy-to-remember domain name in a new foreign market.
TWNIC has progressively promoted internationalized domain name (IDN), where the domain name can be registered in a local language to increase familiarity and create a great first impression in the mind of consumers.
If you want to communicate with the France market, even if you have not registered a branch office in France, TWNIC now provides français.tw to give you the most comprehensive domain name service.
If you want to own the most evocative français.tw domain name, please pay attention to subsequent announcements.
This layer is the name you registered, which can be named after your enterprise, any individual person, trade mark, products, brands, services or any other relevant names as an online identification. For rules regarding French IDN, please refer to the following "Requirements of French IDN".
This layer is the "country code".
".tw" represents Taiwan.
1. French IDN shall consist of characters specified within the scope of the .tw French IDN table(https://www.iana.org/domains/idn-tables), and it shall consist of at least 1 non-ASCII character in combination, and it can also include 26 alphabetical characters in either upper or lower cases, numerical characters of 0-9 and connection symbol (-).
