A registrar may determine a registration status for a domain names. The registrar may determine whether the domain name is in a zone file downloaded from a registry. Upon determining that the domain name is not in the zone file, the registrar may determine whether the domain name is in a DNS zone file created by the registrar. Upon determining that the domain name is not in the DNS zone file created by the registrar, the registrar may transmit an EPP <check> command for the domain name to the registry. The registrar may receive a first EPP <resData> element comprising an error indicating the domain name is available or a value indicating the domain name is not available. Upon receiving the value indicating the domain name is not available, the registrar may transmit an EPP <info> command for the domain name to the registry. The registrar may receive a second EPP <resData> element from the registry comprising an expiration date and a state of the domain name.
