Name	Entity	Notes	IDN	DNSSEC
.aero	air-transport industry	Must verify eligibility for registration; only those in various categories of air-travel-related entities may register.	No	No
.asia	Asia-Pacific region	This is a TLD for companies, organizations, and individuals based in the region of Asia, Australia, and the Pacific.	Yes	Yes
.biz	business	This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register; however, registrations may be challenged later if they are not held by commercial entities in accordance with the domain's charter. This TLD was created to provide relief for the wildly popular .com TLD.	No	Yes
.cat	Catalan	This is a TLD for Web sites in the Catalan language or related to Catalan culture.	Yes	Yes
.com	commercial	This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register. Though originally intended for use by for-profit business entities, for a number of reasons it became the "main" TLD for domain names and is currently used by all types of entities including nonprofits, schools and private individuals. Domain name registrations may be challenged if the holder cannot prove an outside relation justifying reservation of the name, to prevent "squatting".	Yes	Yes
.coop	cooperatives	The .coop TLD is limited to cooperatives as defined by the Rochdale Principles.	No	No
.info	information	This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register.	Yes	Yes
.int	international organizations	The .int TLD is strictly limited to organizations, offices, and programs which are endorsed by a treaty between two or more nations. However, there are a few grandfathered domain names that do not meet these criteria.	No	No
.jobs	companies	The .jobs TLD is designed to be added after the names of established companies with jobs to advertise. At this time, owners of a "company.jobs" domain are not permitted to post jobs of third party employers.	No	No

.museum	museums	Must be verified as a legitimate museum.	Yes	Yes

.net	network	This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register. Originally intended for use by domains pointing to a distributed network of computers, or "umbrella" sites that act as the portal to a set of smaller websites.	No	Yes
.org	organization	This is an open TLD; any person or entity is permitted to register. Originally intended for use by non-profit organizations, and still primarily used by some.	Yes	Yes
.post	postal services	The .post TLD is restricted to Postal Administrations as defined in the Universal Postal Union constitution, and their large customers who wish to provide "Trusted Postal Services".^[2]	No^[3]	Yes
.pro	professions	Currently, .pro is reserved for licensed or certified professionals worldwide. A professional seeking to register a .pro domain must provide their registrar with the appropriate credentials.	No	No
.tel	Internet communication services	A contact directory housing all types of contact information directly in the Domain Name System.	Yes^[4]	No
.travel	travel and tourism industry related sites	Must be verified as a legitimate travel-related entity.	No	No

USA top-level domains

Name	Entity	Notes	IDN	DNSSEC
.edu	educational	The .edu TLD is limited to specific educational institutions such as, but not limited to, primary schools, middle schools, secondary schools, colleges, and universities. In the US, its usability was limited in 2001 to post-secondary institutions accredited by an agency on the list of nationally recognized accrediting agencies maintained by the United States Department of Education. This domain is therefore almost exclusively used by US colleges and universities. Some institutions that do not meet the current registration criteria have grandfathered domain names.	No	Yes
.gov	governmental	The .gov TLD is limited to governmental entities and agencies in the US.	No	Yes
.mil	US military	The .mil TLD is limited to use by the US military.	No	Yes

Proposed internationalized ccTLDs

The following ccTLDs have been requested using a procedure known as IDN ccTLD Fast Track Process.

DNS name	IDN ccTLD	Country	Transliteration	Script	ccTLD
xn--90ae	.бг ^[23]	Bulgaria	bg	Bulgarian Cyrillic	.bg	String rejected
xn--qxam	.ελ	Greece	el	Greek	.gr	String rejected
xn--4dbrk0ce	ישראל.‎^[24]	Israel	Israel	Hebrew	.il
xn--d1alf	.мкд ^[25]^[26]	Macedonia	mkd	Macedonian Cyrillic	.mk	proposed
xn--wgv71a	.日本^[27]	Japan	Nippon or Nihon	Kanji (both Kyūjitai and Shinjitai)	.jp
xn--vcst06ab2a	.日本国^[27]	Japan	Nippon-koku or Nihon-koku	Kanji (Shinjitai)	.jp
xn--q7ce6a	.ລາວ ^[28]	Laos	Lao or Laao	Lao	.la
xn--mgbb7fyab	ليبيا.‎	Libya	Lībyā	Arabic	.ly

".ελ" was rejected because of its confusing similarity to .EA which is not a TLD but a reserved two letter string in the reserved ISO-3166 list. Much like the case of Bulgaria’s applied-for ".бг" and subsequent denial by the DNS SP, because of similarity to .br, Greece must wait until after the IDN cctld Fast Track Process before it can enjoy its own icctld.^[29]^[30]

Test TLDs

ICANN created a set of top-level Internationalized domain names in October 2007 for the purpose of testing the use of IDNA in the root zone and within those domains. They are expected to be available for a limited evaluation period.^[31]^[32] Each of these TLDs encodes a word meaning "test" in the respective language.^[32]^[33]

Each of these domains contains only one site with the word example encoded in the respective script and language. These example.test sites are test wikis used by ICANN.
