Proxy
Checker

Ensure the proxy details are correct and active. Proxies may expire, get blocked by the target site, or have incorrect credentials. Double-check the format: ip:port or ip:port:user:pass. Some proxies are also protocol-specific — a SOCKS5 proxy won't work if you select HTTP/HTTPS.

Use our proxy checker to instantly test proxy functionality and speed. Enter your proxy list, choose the protocol, set a target URL, and click "Check Proxies". The tool will return real-time status, connection time, country, and ISP for each proxy.

It shows how private your connection is. Transparent proxies reveal your real IP. Anonymous proxies hide your IP but identify themselves as proxies. Elite proxies provide the highest level of anonymity — they hide both your IP and the fact that you're using a proxy.

Response time indicates how quickly a proxy responds, measured in milliseconds. Lower is better — under 300ms is considered fast, 300–800ms is moderate, and above 800ms may be too slow for time-sensitive tasks like web scraping or ad verification.

Yes, our tool supports batch testing. You can enter up to 100 proxies at once, one per line. The checker processes them in parallel and returns results as they come in, so you don't have to wait for each one sequentially.

You can check up to 100 proxies per batch with no daily usage limit. For high-volume needs, consider our premium proxy plans which come with built-in quality guarantees and 99.9% uptime SLA — no manual checking required.

An open proxy test identifies proxies that allow unreconnected third parties to relay traffic through them — potentially posing security risks. Using open proxies is dangerous as your traffic can be intercepted. Always use authenticated, trusted proxy providers like ProxyEmpire.

HTTP/HTTPS proxies handle web traffic only. SOCKS4 supports any traffic but no authentication or UDP. SOCKS5 is the most versatile — it supports TCP, UDP, IPv6, and authentication, making it ideal for torrenting, gaming, and complex scraping tasks.
