What is WHOIS?
WHOIS is the traditional text-based protocol for querying domain registration records, including the registrar, creation and expiration dates, nameservers, and EPP status flags.
Domain Name: EXAMPLE.COM Registry Domain ID: 2336799_DOMAIN_COM-VRSN Registrar: RESERVED-IANA Creation Date: 1995-08-14T04:00:00Z Registry Expiry Date: 2027-08-13T04:00:00Z Name Server: ELLIOTT.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM Name Server: HERA.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM Status: clientDeleteProhibited
What is RDAP?
RDAP (Registration Data Access Protocol) replaced legacy gTLD WHOIS on January 28, 2025, delivering standardized machine-readable JSON over HTTPS with clear GDPR privacy controls.
