IP addresses in Australia

What an IP address located in Australia carries: the registries that allocated its space and how much, the privacy regime, sanctions programmes and FATF list a lookup answers for it, the clock it keeps, and how well free geolocation places a city here. Read from the registries’ statistics and the curated facts files, never from a person.

What the registries record for Australia

The five regional Internet registries publish daily statistics of every block they have allocated or assigned, each with the country they recorded for it. These are the rows that name Australia as of the statistics dated 2026-09-12. A registry country is what the registrant declared, and it can differ from where an address is used.

What a lookup answers for an address here

Every IP lookup that places an address in Australia carries the same country facts beside the network: is_eu false, is_eea false, currency AUD and calling_code 61. The three below are facts about the place from curated files that name their sources and dates; none of them is advice and none carries a risk weight.

  • Privacy law. A lookup here answers privacy_regime: privacy_act.
  • Sanctions. No country-related US (OFAC) sanctions programme names Australia; a lookup answers sanctions: [].
  • FATF. Australia is on neither FATF list; a lookup answers fatf_list: null.
  • Clock. Several zones. Australia keeps more than one clock, so the zone is settled per address: by the region where the curated map knows it lies in one zone, else by the nearest listed place inside the country, never by a national guess.

How well free geolocation places a city in Australia

56 of 71 compared addresses in Australia were placed in the same city by the database and by the network operator’s own declaration: 78.9 % agreement. That is agreement between two data sources, never ground truth of a person’s location, and it is what grades location_confidence for database-located addresses here.

Measured weekly by re-locating addresses whose operators publish their own location — clouds, relays, VPN servers and RFC 8805 geofeeds — and comparing the database’s city with the declared one. Country-level agreement is far higher everywhere; city-level precision from free data is approximate and should never carry a compliance or identity decision on its own.

Run the lookup

The same fields, with the network, the operator and every flag beside them, for any address:

curl https://spaw.co/api/v1/ip \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_…" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"ip": "203.0.113.9"}'

Or try one without a key on the free IP lookup, and read every field in the IP intelligence guide.

If Spaw is holding data about you and you never signed up here — a customer may have had your address verified, or reported that a message to it bounced — erase it yourself, confirmed by mail to that address and with no account needed.
