There is a regularly updated ICANN csv file that summarises New gTLD information in 6 fields https://newgtlds.icann.org/newgtlds.csv

field 1: punycode form
field 2: unicode form
field 3: registry operator
field 4: date registry agreement signed
field 5: application number
field 6: date of delegation (empty if not yet delegated)

Fields 1,2,3,4 from this csv are incorporated into the public suffix list https://publicsuffix.org/list/public_suffix_list.dat

For example, the csv entry for .コム is
xn--tckwe,コム,"VeriSign Sarl",2015-01-15,1-1254-37311,

Chrome uses this public suffix list. One interesting (and IMHO good) consequence is that Chrome will recognise a .コム IDN (e.g. http://anything.コム ) as a domain name to be resolved even though it is not yet delegated. Chrome does not resort to a search. So Chrome is ready to go as soon as .コム is delegated.
