Quick examples:

What is RDAP?

The Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP) is the modern, secure successor to legacy port-43 WHOIS. Defined by IETF RFCs 7480-7484 and mandated by ICANN, RDAP delivers standardized, machine-readable JSON responses, supports internationalized domain names (IDNs), and includes built-in access controls to protect registrant personal data under GDPR.

Authoritative Registry Scope

RDAP queries are directed directly to the contracted registry operator administering that extension (for example, Verisign for .com and .net, Identity Digital for .info, or PIR for .org). Results display real-time registry-level records rather than cached third-party approximations.
