.dev WHOIS Lookup
Look up any .dev domain instantly. FetchWhois queries Google Registry's RDAP server and returns the full registration record — registrar, key dates, nameservers, DNSSEC and contact details — for any .dev domain.
How the .dev WHOIS lookup works
Live .dev RDAP data from Google Registry.
Enter a .dev domain name
Type the .dev domain into the search box. .dev is widely used by software developers, open-source projects and development tools.
FetchWhois queries Google Registry's RDAP server
Google Registry operates the .dev TLD. We resolve the RDAP endpoint via IANA and query it live.
Read the .dev registration record
Registrar, dates, status, nameservers and DNSSEC data appear in a structured layout. Note: .dev enforces HTTPS — all .dev websites must use SSL.
.dev domains: Google Registry's developer TLD with mandatory HTTPS
.dev is a TLD operated by Google Registry, launched in 2019 and targeted at developers, software projects, development environments and technology tools. One of its most distinctive features is that .dev is included in browsers' HSTS preload list — meaning all .dev websites must serve content over HTTPS. Browsers will refuse to load .dev pages over plain HTTP. This makes .dev inherently more secure than most other TLDs and signals a commitment to modern web security.
WHOIS lookups for .dev domains use Google Registry's RDAP server. The registration data includes registrar, creation/expiry dates, status codes, nameservers and DNSSEC. .dev domains are popular with individual developers, open-source project pages and developer-tooling companies. Pricing is higher than .com (typically $12–$15/year) but demand remains strong due to the TLD's relevance and security benefits.
