WHOIS for .zm (nic.zm)

GEThttps://api.deepinfo.com/v1/lookup/whois

The WHOIS record of nic.zm, in the .zm registry's format.

TLD: .zm
Type: country-code

.zm is the country-code top-level domain of Zambia.

The example requests the WHOIS record of nic.zm, the registry's own domain by convention, so the response shows the .zm registry's WHOIS format: compare raw, the text as the WHOIS server returned it, with parsed, the same record in Deepinfo's fields.
