Find the country, city, ISP and network behind any IP address.
Geolocation data is approximate and provided by public IP geolocation databases.
IP Address Lookup translates a raw IP address into meaningful, human-readable context: which country and city it's likely located in, which internet service provider or hosting company owns the block it belongs to, its autonomous system number (ASN), and its approximate timezone. Leave the field blank and it will look up your own current public IP instead.
Your browser first resolves your own public IP (if you didn't type one) using a lightweight public echo service, then sends the target IP to a geolocation API that maps IP ranges to real-world locations using a combination of regional internet registry (RIR) allocation records, routing data and network operator submissions. All of this happens directly from your browser — no address is ever sent to or stored on our own servers.
IP geolocation is inherently approximate. Large ISPs often allocate blocks regionally rather than street-by-street, mobile carriers route traffic through centralized gateways that can be hundreds of miles from the actual device, and VPNs or corporate networks can place you anywhere the exit node happens to be. Expect city-level accuracy at best, and treat the result as a strong regional estimate rather than a precise pinpoint.
Developers use IP lookups to debug geofencing or CDN routing issues. Website owners use them to understand where traffic spikes are really coming from. Security analysts use them to triage suspicious login attempts by cross-referencing IP origin against expected user locations. Anyone troubleshooting a network issue can use it to confirm which provider and network block a problematic connection belongs to.
Country-level accuracy is very high; city-level is usually correct for fixed broadband connections but far less reliable for mobile and VPN traffic.
No. IP geolocation only maps to the network block's registered service area, never an exact street address or GPS-precise location.
Your ISP may route your connection through a regional hub, or you may be behind a VPN or corporate proxy, both of which shift the apparent location.
An Autonomous System Number identifies the network operator responsible for routing that IP block — useful for identifying whether traffic comes from a known hosting provider, ISP, or cloud platform.
Yes, you can paste an IPv6 address and it will be looked up the same way as IPv4.
