Net Domains in Chinese At present, Domain names are all written using Roman characters. China has therefore set up a system that allows domains to be registered in Chinese characters.
Subramanian Subbiah, co-founder of I-DNS.net that has worked with China on the Chinese language domains, said the system has been brought in because the government got fed up waiting for net address overseer Icann to approve an official way of using non-Roman alphabets in domain names.
