`GET https://api.deepinfo.com/v1/lookup/whois?domain=nic.xn--q7ce6a`

What the API returns when the .ລາວ registry's WHOIS server finds no record for nic.ລາວ.

Example 114 of 138 in **Internationalized (IDN)** · [Domain WHOIS Examples by TLD](/reference/lookup/domain-whois/examples/) · endpoint: [Domain WHOIS](/reference/lookup/domain-whois/)

Tags: `tld` `.ລາວ` · `type` `idn` · `punycode` `xn--q7ce6a`

`.ລາວ` is an internationalized top-level domain. Domain names travel in their ASCII (punycode) form, so the request asks for `nic.xn--q7ce6a`.

The example requests the WHOIS record of `nic.ລາວ`, the registry's own domain by convention. The `.ລາວ` registry's WHOIS server answered that it found no record for it: `raw` is that answer, `parsed` is `null` and `parse_code` is 13001.
