Every device on the internet has an IP address, and those addresses are allocated to organizations in specific countries. Our GEO IP Locator takes any IP address or domain, resolves it, and queries the internet’s official WHOIS directory — the same registry system network operators use — to report the country and organization behind it. No third-party geolocation API, no signup, no tracking.
People use it to verify where a website is actually hosted, to investigate suspicious emails by checking the sender’s server location, or to satisfy curiosity about a domain’s network home. Because the lookup queries whois.iana.org and follows the referral to the responsible regional registry (ARIN, RIPE, APNIC, LACNIC or AFRINIC), the results come straight from the authoritative source.
A note on accuracy: WHOIS shows where the IP block is registered, which is usually — but not always — where the server physically sits. Large providers register blocks centrally while operating data centers worldwide, so treat the country as the network’s registered home rather than a GPS coordinate.
GEO IP Locator
Look up the country and network of any IP address or domain.
How to use
- Enter an IP address (e.g. 8.8.8.8) or a domain.
- Click “Locate”.
- Read the resolved IP, country and organization.
- Check which regional registry answered the query.
- Use the organization name to research the network further if needed.
FAQs
How accurate is the country result?
It reflects the country in the official WHOIS registration, which is authoritative for ownership. It is not a GPS location — CDNs and cloud providers may serve traffic from elsewhere.
Can I look up my own IP?
The tool resolves domains and accepts IPs you type. To see your own public IP, search “what is my ip” in your browser, then paste it here.
Why does it say “Unknown” for some fields?
Some registries redact organization details for privacy, or the record simply does not include a country field. The tool reports what the registry publishes — nothing more.
