Every device connected to the internet has an IP (Internet Protocol) address — a unique numerical label that identifies it on the network. This tool uses geolocation databases to map an IP address to its approximate physical location and network provider information. You can look up any public IPv4 or IPv6 address, or instantly see data about your own IP without typing anything.
How to Use IP Address Lookup
Common Use Cases
- Checking which IP your server or VPN is presenting to the internet
- Verifying the geographic region of an IP for compliance or access control
- Identifying the ISP or hosting provider behind a suspicious IP address
- Looking up ASN (Autonomous System Number) information for network routing
- Confirming your VPN or proxy is routing traffic through the expected country
- Investigating server IPs to understand where a service is hosted
Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the geolocation data?
City-level accuracy varies — typically within 50 km for most IPs, but less reliable for mobile networks, VPNs, and proxies. Country-level accuracy is over 99% for most public IP ranges.
Can I look up private or reserved IP addresses?
No. Private ranges (192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.16–31.x.x), localhost (127.0.0.1), and link-local addresses (169.254.x.x) are not routable on the public internet and will return an error.
Does this tool store my IP address?
No data is stored by this site. The lookup request is sent directly from your browser to the ip-api.com API. No data is logged or retained here.
What is an ASN?
An Autonomous System Number (ASN) identifies a network — such as an ISP, company, or hosting provider — that controls a block of IP addresses and has a unified routing policy on the internet.
