Free public proxies are run by unknown third parties. They are slow, short-lived, and a share are honeypots that can log or tamper with your traffic. This list is provided as-is for testing and research — never send sensitive or logged-in traffic through a free proxy. We validate liveness only; we do not operate, audit, or endorse these proxies.

Curious how reliable free proxies really are? Read our free-proxy reliability report — live data on how many actually work. Or see which top sites refuse datacenter IPs — the same request, sent from both kinds of IP, with only the differences published. Searching for free residential proxies? Read what is actually free, and what is not. To see where a proxy really exits, use the IP lookup.

Free proxy lists by protocol, anonymity and country

Free tool

Proxy checker

Paste any proxy and see whether it’s alive, how fast it is, and whether it leaks your IP — the same test we run on every proxy in the list above.

Up to 20 at a time, 10 checks per 10 minutes. One line each — `ip:port`, or add `socks5://` to force a protocol. We test them against our own endpoint, so nothing you paste is used to fetch anything else.
For developers

Free proxy API

The same live list as JSON or plain text. No API key, no signup, CORS enabled — call it from a script, a server, or straight from the browser.

Same list, other shapes: committed to github.com/proxmint/free-proxy-list every 30 minutes (one .txt per protocol, plus all.json with the full row), or on npm as proxmint (download counts on npmtrends) — a CLI and a zero-dependency client, also on the Snap Store as sudo snap install proxmint. Need http:// or socks5:// URLs instead of bare ip:port lines? Paste the list into the proxy formatter.

Rate limit 60 requests/minute per IP. The list is re-validated every 30 minutes — polling faster than that returns the same rows. anonymity is null where we could not measure it, never a guess.

Machine-readable: openapi.json — OpenAPI 3.1 covering this endpoint and the IP lookup one. Import it into any HTTP client instead of copying the parameters by hand.

FAQ

Free proxies, answered

Are free proxies safe to use?

Free public proxies are run by unknown third parties. They are slow, short-lived, and a share are honeypots that can log or tamper with your traffic. This list is provided as-is for testing and research — never send sensitive or logged-in traffic through a free proxy. We validate liveness only; we do not operate, audit, or endorse these proxies.

Why do these free proxies stop working?

Free proxies are shared, unmanaged, and frequently pulled offline, rate-limited, or blocked. Most entries die within minutes to hours, which is why we re-validate the whole list every 30 minutes and drop dead proxies automatically.

How is this list kept fresh?

We continuously pull from public sources, then check each proxy through our own endpoint to confirm it actually forwards traffic. Only proxies confirmed alive within our freshness window are shown, ranked by a reliability score (uptime, latency, recency).

What's the difference between free and paid proxies?

Free proxies are unreliable, anonymous in origin, and unsuitable for anything that matters. Proxmint's paid proxies come from a managed pool that stays up and can target down to a city — pay only for the bandwidth you use. If a free proxy keeps failing you, that's the gap our plans close.

Tired of proxies that die in minutes?

Free proxies are fine for a quick test. For real work you want geo-targetable residential proxies from a pool that stays up — and we'll add 1 GB of residential free to your first payment of $10 or more. Pay only for the bandwidth you use after that. Pay with crypto — USDT, BTC, SOL or Monero, no subscription.
