Domain name

Unicode or Punycode. A scheme, userinfo, port, or path is stripped first.

Punycode (ASCII)

What you put in a DNS record or a certificate

xn--mnchen-3ya.de

Unicode (IDN)

What a browser shows in the address bar

münchen.de

This name contains non-ASCII characters, so the Punycode form is a different string. Punycode display is lossy: the original Unicode form is the one that decides what the user sees.

Per-label breakdown
