🔒 We query the official registry (RDAP) – the public source for domain registration data.
How to use the whois lookup
- Enter a domain.
- We ask the registry's RDAP service.
- Check the expiry date and registrar details.
Why domain expiry matters
If a domain expires, the website and every email address on it stop working – and someone else can register it. Turn on auto-renew and keep the registrar contact email up to date.
WHOIS vs RDAP
RDAP is the modern, structured replacement for WHOIS. Most personal owner details are hidden for privacy (GDPR), but dates, registrar and name servers are public.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find out when a domain expires?
Enter it above – the expiry date and days left are shown at the top.
How do I check how old a domain is?
The registered date shows when it was first created; the age is calculated for you.
Why can't I see the owner's name?
Most registrars redact personal details for privacy. Contact them through the registrar's relay form instead.
