New gTLDs
![Page 6: ICANN update](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56815a5e550346895dc793a3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

• Numbers: 66 geographic names, 116 in non-Latin scripts, applicants from 60 countries (911 – North America, 675 – Europe, 303 – Asia-Pacific, 24 – Latin America & Caribean, 17 – Africa)

What is Universal Acceptance?
• Ensure Internet software universally accepts all domains (including IDNs)
• Problems when software checks user input against a hard-coded list of TLDs, TLD character length, or other incomplete or outdated criteria
• Does not cover policy aspects of what TLDs should be allowed or restricted

Technical recommendations• Do you need to check domain validity?
• If not, don’t do it. Rethink why you do it.
• If so, is it an online application?
• If so, use a DNS query which is instant and up-to-date, don’t rely on a fixed list.
• Last case scenario
• Use a fixed list of TLDs, but make sure it has an update mechanism (e.g. once per day)
