Geolocate any IP address

Enter an IPv4 or IPv6 address — or a domain name — to see its approximate city, region, country and continent. Your own public IP and location are detected automatically at the top of the page.

Because geolocation is an estimate, the tool also shows hard facts from the regional internet registry: the organization that owns the address, its network range and registered country, the reverse DNS name and the abuse contact for reporting misuse.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is IP location?

Country-level is accurate for most addresses; city-level is right often but not always, especially on mobile networks.

Can an IP address reveal a street address?

No. Only the internet provider can link an IP to a customer, and only through legal process.

Why does my IP show a different city?

Your provider may route traffic through a hub in another city, or you may be using a VPN.
