Why is my IP not in my country?
There are Geolocation or GeoIP services on the internet, such as https://www.whatismyip.com/, which try to determine the location of your IP address as you access them. The IP addresses in our Japan example may still show up as Dutch IP addresses according to the GeoIP services.
Do countries have specific IP ranges?
There are 232 (over four billion) IP addresses in the IPv4 protocol. Of these, almost 600 million are reserved and cannot be used for public routing. The rest are allocated to countries by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) via the regional Internet registries (RIRs).
Can you tell country from IP address?
No you can’t – IP addresses get reallocated and reassigned from time to time, so the mapping of IP to location will also change over time.
Why is my IP location wrong?

Can the police track IP address?
The authorities can only track an IP address to a VPN company, which they’d then have to force to reveal the real IP address from logs, which might not even exist. If the criminal connected to that VPN from another, law enforcement would have to work their way through multiple companies to find the details.

What can I get from an IP address?
While most IP addresses are public, meaning that people from all over the world can connect to it (just like you connected to a number of IP addresses to read this post), there are some ranges that have been set aside for private use.

Why does the USPS not recognize my address?

If an address contains any incorrect data, it will not match a corresponding address in that database, and is therefore “invalid”.
