It seems like it has not been standardized yet:

> As of March 7, 2025, the domain has not been standardized by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), though an Internet-Draft describing the TLD has been submitted.

It's been reserved by ICANN:

> Resolved (2024.07.29.06), the Board reserves .INTERNAL from delegation in the DNS root zone permanently to provide for its use in private-use applications.
