What is the IDNS Registry System?
The IDNS registry system is a structure that allows multilingual domain names to be registered in a central database called the registry, while additional contact details for the registration such as licence holder and administrative contact are stored in separate databases. These databases are administered by various organisations known as registrars. This means that when you register a domain name through a registrar such as Melbourne IT your registration is simultaneously recorded in the central registry. The IDNS registry / registrar system has been developed to be interoperable with the DNS currently administered by the NSI Registry.
