  Hi podtulyawat,

  That’s correct, Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) aren’t currently supported here on WordPress.com:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/#internationalized-domain-names-idns

  While you can search for available domains containing internationalized characters, they will be converted to non-internationalized characters. For example, ‘ä’ will become ‘a’.

  1. Do we have any plug-in that can solve this problem or anythings?

  Plugins are only available with the Business plan but there aren’t any that can be used to add an IDN to your WordPress.com site I’m afraid.
