I am looking at purchasing some domains which have the legacy € (euro symbol) as part of the name. I note that Verisign says:

"The Euro symbol is included in a set of codepoints that is blocked. There are some legacy registrations that contain the symbol, but new registrations are not allowed."


Can someone explain to me if the sites with the legacy names are able to be viewed by European countries as € -- or is the punycode everywhere, and no longer able to appear as a symbol in any name, throughout the world?

Also, does this mean even if I purchase them, legacy or not, I cannot renew the old registration?

Please let me know asap...

Thanks

If you own a domain with a euro symbol, you can keep it and keep renewing it. And it will work in browsers.

But any new domains cannot be registered with the euro symbol. And if you don't renew a domain with a euro symbol and it get's deleted, you can't register it again.
