Is your domain name still available?

Enter a domain. We query the registry's public data: taken or available, with which registrar, since when and until when.

  • Registry data (RDAP)

Whois is now called RDAP

The old Whois is being replaced by the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP): structured data straight from the registry of the extension. Since the GDPR, owners' personal data are mostly no longer included, but registrar, dates, status and name servers are.

Some extensions, including .de.eu.at and .ch, offer no public RDAP. There we check via DNS: if the domain has name servers, it is taken; otherwise it is probably available. Only a registration tells for certain.

FAQ

What do statuses like "client transfer prohibited" mean?

These are locks set by the registrar: "transfer prohibited" prevents moving to another registrar without release, "delete prohibited" prevents deletion. That is normal and protects the domain.

The domain has expired but is not available?

After expiry the registry usually keeps a domain for a while (redemption period). Only then does it become available again.
