WHOIS Lookup

Look up the public registration record for any domain name or IP address, straight from the source registry.

Enter a domain name or an IP address above, then click Lookup.

About This Tool

WHOIS Lookup finds the public registration record for any domain name or IP address, using RDAP, the modern, standardized successor to the old WHOIS protocol. The registry that actually holds the record is resolved automatically, then queried directly from the browser, with no server in between and nothing typed here stored anywhere.

A handful of regional registries have not enabled direct browser access yet. When that happens, the tool says so plainly and links straight to the full record in a new tab, instead of just failing silently.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHOIS is the long-standing system for looking up who registered a domain name or who a block of IP addresses is allocated to, originally a simple text-based lookup protocol. This tool reads that same registration data through RDAP, its modern web-friendly replacement.

RDAP is the modern, standardized successor to the WHOIS protocol. It returns structured JSON over HTTPS instead of unstructured plain text, which is what lets this tool query registries directly from a browser.

A few regional registries have not enabled direct browser access to their RDAP service. When that happens, a link to the full result opens in a new tab instead of the lookup silently failing.
