What it checks
Expiry date
Days left before the registration runs out. Under 60 is a warning, under 30 fails.
Transfer lock
Whether the domain is locked so no one can move it to another registrar.
Status codes
Every registry status, like clientTransferProhibited, explained in plain words.
Deletion and holds
Flags a domain in redemption, pending delete or on hold, which means it’s offline or at risk.
Registrar
Who the domain is registered through, its IANA ID and its abuse contact.
Name servers and DNSSEC
The name servers the registry lists, and whether DNSSEC is switched on.
Questions
What happens when a domain expires?
For .com and most other generic domains, the site and email stop working, but you can usually still renew for a while. After that, the domain goes into a 30-day redemption period with a restore fee. Then it’s deleted and anyone can register it.
What is a transfer lock?
A status called clientTransferProhibited that stops the domain being moved to another registrar. It’s the main defence against domain theft. Turn it off only while you’re moving the domain yourself.
Why can’t you show the expiry date for my domain?
We read the registry’s RDAP service, the modern replacement for WHOIS. Some country registries, like .de, don’t offer RDAP, so the date isn’t available to us. Your registrar’s dashboard always shows it.
Why don’t you show who owns the domain?
Most registries hide owner names and addresses for privacy. We only show what they publish: the registrar, dates, status codes and name servers.
