Free IPv4 & IPv6 lookup with location, country, and time zone.
Enter any IPv4 or IPv6 address to look up its country, region, and approximate location.
CheckIP.Live shows your public IP address — both IPv4 and IPv6 — along with the country, region, city, and time zone associated with each. Most modern devices use both protocols at once, so we query each one separately and show you exactly what the public internet sees.
Every device on the internet has an IP address. When you open a website, your browser sends that address with each request. CheckIP.Live reads it directly and looks it up in the public MaxMind GeoLite2 geolocation database to estimate the country, region, and approximate coordinates.
An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique numeric identifier assigned to every device connected to a network. It is used to route traffic between your device and the websites or services you visit.
IPv4 looks like 192.168.1.1 — four numbers between 0 and 255 separated by dots. IPv6 looks like 2001:db8::1 — eight groups of hexadecimal digits separated by colons. IPv6 was introduced because IPv4 addresses are running out.
Most devices have both. We query each protocol separately so you see exactly what the public internet sees for both at the same time — useful for spotting VPN leaks or confirming your IPv6 is working.
Yes, completely free. No premium tiers, no usage limits, no sign-up.
IP geolocation is approximate. It is usually accurate at the country level, often correct at the region level, but rarely down to a specific street.
No. Each request is looked up live and the result is returned to your browser. We do not log visitor IPs for tracking.
