10 Best Europe Proxies (2026)
We compared European country coverage, carrier targeting, GDPR documentation and pricing across 19 providers. These are the 10 best Europe proxies in 2026.
By ProxyGlance Editorial Team · Updated
Europe is not one proxy market but more than 40 of them. A shopper in Munich sees different prices on Amazon.de than one in Milan sees on Amazon.it; Google returns different results in Warsaw and in Lyon; Allegro, bol.com, Otto and Vinted each serve their own countries and languages. If you monitor prices, track rankings, verify ads or manage accounts across European markets, you need IPs that each country's websites accept as local — and ideally one provider that covers all the countries you care about.
The problem is that "Europe" on a proxy provider's page can mean anything from a few datacenter racks in Frankfurt to tens of millions of residential IPs across every EU member state. We compared 19 providers on what they publish for Europe — which countries they list, how many IPs they claim there, country, city, ISP and carrier targeting, which proxy types they sell with European IPs, the compliance documentation they make available, and what it costs — and picked the 10 that cover the most needs.
How we chose
We reviewed each provider's official Europe region page, country location pages, product pages, pricing and policy pages in November 2026, focusing on the main European markets: the UK, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Poland, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark, Ukraine and Turkey. We compared the European countries each provider lists, published IP counts, targeting options, proxy types, pricing, trial and refund terms, and published certifications and GDPR documentation. These picks are based on published specifications and policies, not on our own speed or success-rate testing. Read more in our review process.

✓ means the country appears on the provider's own location list or has its own location page for residential or mobile proxies (November 2026); – means it isn't listed on the provider's location pages. Several providers file Turkey under Asia rather than Europe (Oxylabs, IPRoyal, Novada and Proxy-Seller do), but all of them list it. Proxy-Seller's location list mainly reflects its dedicated IPv4 product; its residential pool claims 220+ locations without a per-country list, so Denmark may still be available there. A ✓ says nothing about depth: a country can be listed with a few thousand IPs or several million.
Published IP counts for the main markets
| Provider | UK | Germany | France | Netherlands | Spain | Italy | Poland | Ukraine |

Counts are each provider's own claim from its locations or Europe page in November 2026. Providers count differently — unique IPs over a month, IPs online at a moment, or several proxy types combined — so compare depth within one provider's list rather than across providers.
Comparison table
| Provider | European locations claimed | Europe-relevant targeting | Proxy types in Europe | Entry price |

Every figure in these tables is the provider's own claim from its official pages in November 2026. Several providers publish conflicting numbers on different pages — we note those in each section — and prices change often, so check the provider's pricing page before you buy.
The European proxy landscape
Europe has some features that change how you should buy and use proxies compared with the US or Asia.
GDPR sets the tone. The EU General Data Protection Regulation has applied since May 2018 to personal data about people in the EU, wherever the company processing it is based. For proxy buyers this matters twice. First, a residential proxy network routes traffic through real people's devices, so EU buyers' compliance teams increasingly ask how the provider obtained those people's consent. Second, if you collect personal data through proxies — names, profiles, reviews, contact details — you need a lawful basis and the usual safeguards. That's why European procurement processes often ask for a Data Processing Agreement (DPA), standard contractual clauses (SCCs) for transfers outside the EU, and certifications such as ISO/IEC 27001. Not every provider publishes these; we note which ones do.
EU and non-EU Europe. The EU has 27 member states, but several important markets sit outside it. The UK has its own UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018; Switzerland has its revised Federal Act on Data Protection; Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein apply the GDPR through the European Economic Area; and Turkey and Ukraine have their own data protection laws. Provider pages don't agree on where Europe ends either — several file Turkey under Asia — so check the country list, not the region label.
Many "European" IPs are datacenter IPs. Frankfurt, Amsterdam and London host some of the world's largest internet exchanges and data center clusters. That makes them excellent places to run scrapers, but it also means a lot of "German", "Dutch" or "UK" proxies are hosting-company ranges in those three cities. European e-commerce and social platforms flag hosting ranges quickly. If you need traffic that looks like real visitors, ask for residential, mobile or ISP IPs, and check the ASN of the IPs you get.
Language and localisation. Europe has 24 official EU languages and many regional ones. Sites localise prices, currency (euro, pound, złoty, krona, forint and others), VAT-inclusive pricing, delivery options and search results by country — and sometimes by region or language within a country, as in Belgium or Switzerland. Matching the IP's country with browser language, Accept-Language headers and time zone is as important as the IP itself.
Local marketplaces. Amazon runs separate European stores — Amazon.co.uk, .de, .fr, .it, .es, .nl, .pl, .se and .com.be among them — each with its own prices and sellers. Alongside it, Allegro dominates Polish e-commerce, bol.com leads in the Netherlands and Belgium, Otto is a major German retailer, Zalando sells fashion across many European countries, and Vinted runs a large second-hand marketplace across Europe. These sites localise heavily by country and run modern bot protection, so residential or mobile IPs from the right country are usually needed.
Russia and Belarus. The EU, the UK and others have applied wide-ranging sanctions against Russia since 2022, and against Belarus. Some providers no longer sell Russian IPs (Bright Data's European list includes Belarus but not Russia), and some refuse customers from Russia or Belarus. If you need Russian IPs, read our guide to the best Russia proxies, which covers which providers still sell them and the policies that apply; this guide focuses on the rest of Europe.
1. Bright Data — Best for every proxy type across Europe

Bright Data's location list is the most complete European list we found: about 50 European locations, from the UK, Germany and France to the Baltic states, the Balkans, Ukraine, Turkey and microstates such as Andorra, Monaco, San Marino and the Vatican. Its Europe page doesn't give a European IP figure — it promises a "limitless number of Europe IPs" from a network of 400M+ monthly IPs — but it does say which products reach how far: residential in 195 countries, datacenter in 98 and ISP in 35.
What sets it apart is that you can buy all four proxy types with European IPs — residential, mobile, ISP and datacenter — from one account, with targeting by country, city, state, ZIP code, mobile carrier and ASN. That suits teams that monitor dozens of European Amazon, travel or classifieds sites at once, or need one supplier for both scraping and long-lived account work.
It also publishes extensive compliance documentation. Its security documentation states GDPR and CCPA compliance programs, Data Privacy Impact Assessments as part of product flows, ISO 27001/27017/27018 certification and an annual SOC 2 Type II audit. Residential pricing starts from $5.88/GB according to its pricing page, and the page advertised a promotional discount code when we checked. Bright Data's European list includes Belarus but not Russia.
| Key facts | |
|---|---|
| European coverage | ~50 European locations listed; residential 195 countries, datacenter 98, ISP 35 worldwide |
| Targeting | Country, city, state, ZIP, carrier, ASN |
| Types in Europe | Residential, mobile, ISP, datacenter |
| Pricing | Residential from $5.88/GB (pricing page) |
| Compliance | GDPR and CCPA programs, DPIAs, ISO 27001/27017/27018, SOC 2 Type II |
| Trial | Free trial offered for residential proxies (terms not detailed on the Europe page) |
Pros
- Longest published European location list, including microstates
- Every proxy type available with European IPs
- Detailed published security and privacy documentation
Cons
- No European or per-country IP counts on its Europe page
- Higher list prices than most of this list
- Mobile, ISP and datacenter prices not shown on its Europe page
2. Oxylabs — Best for large-scale scraping
Oxylabs publishes the most transparent European breakdown we found: 39,961,765 IPs across 44 European countries, with an IP count for every country. The big markets are deep — 6,339,966 in the UK, 6,264,823 in Germany, 5,921,834 in Spain, 5,174,969 in France and 3,634,314 in Italy — and so is Eastern Europe, with 3,601,126 in Ukraine, 2,262,858 in Poland and 2,152,899 in Romania. The Nordics and Benelux are thinner: 125,738 in Sweden, 155,057 in Belgium and 55,729 in Denmark.
That per-country transparency makes Oxylabs easy to plan around for pan-European projects, such as crawling every Amazon EU store daily or tracking Google results in 10 markets. Its Europe page lists residential proxies with city-level targeting, mobile proxies with country, state, city and ASN targeting, dedicated datacenter proxies with city or state selection, and SOCKS5 proxies with ZIP and ASN targeting.
The Europe page quotes residential from $2.50/GB, mobile from $3.50/GB and dedicated datacenter IPs from $1.20 per IP; its title advertises the $1.20/IP datacenter price. These are "starts from" rates for large plans, so check the pricing page for your volume. Oxylabs' Trust Center lists ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification. Turkey appears in its Asia list rather than the European one.
| Key facts | |
|---|---|
| European pool | 39,961,765 IPs across 44 countries |
| Largest markets | UK 6,339,966; Germany 6,264,823; Spain 5,921,834; France 5,174,969 |
| Types in Europe | Residential, mobile, dedicated datacenter, SOCKS5 |
| Pricing (Europe page) | Residential from $2.50/GB; mobile from $3.50/GB; datacenter from $1.20/IP |
| Certification | ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Trust Center) |
| Protocols | HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS5 |
Pros
- Published IP count for every European country
- Deep pools in Eastern Europe as well as the big Western markets
- Residential, mobile and datacenter options on one page
Cons
- Headline prices apply to larger plans
- Thin pools in Denmark, Sweden and Belgium compared with the big markets
- No ISP or carrier names on the Europe page
3. ProxyEmpire — Best for European mobile proxies

ProxyEmpire's Europe page claims 39 European locations, including all 27 EU member states, and states that rotating residential reaches every one of them. Mobile coverage is unusually broad: the page says 38 European locations have rotating mobile proxies (though another passage on the same page says 40), on 4G and 5G connections from local carriers, with carrier selection where several networks are available. Its country pages name the networks: the Italy page, for example, lists TIM, Vodafone, WindTre and Iliad.
Targeting goes beyond country on both main products. Residential traffic can be narrowed by region, city, ZIP, ISP, ASN and OS fingerprint; mobile by region, city, ZIP, carrier, ASN and OS fingerprint. Datacenter and static residential products are country-level only. ProxyEmpire also sells static residential IPs in 13 European countries, which suits account work in markets such as Germany, France, Spain, Italy or Poland.
Residential traffic costs $3.50/GB pay-as-you-go and falls to $1.50/GB on larger plans; its pricing page lists mobile from $2/GB. A $1.97 trial includes residential and mobile bandwidth. ProxyEmpire's Europe page includes a short GDPR note — focus on non-personal public data, and have a lawful basis if personal data is involved — and says banking, payment and government websites are blocked by default on all products. The page also contradicts itself on datacenter coverage (22 or 24 European locations).
| Key facts | |
|---|---|
| European coverage | 39 locations, all 27 EU states; mobile in 38 (page also says 40) |
| Targeting | Residential: region, city, ZIP, ISP, ASN, OS; mobile: region, city, ZIP, carrier, ASN, OS |
| Types in Europe | Rotating residential, rotating mobile, datacenter (22–24 locations), static residential (13 countries) |
| Pricing | Residential $3.50/GB pay-as-you-go → $1.50/GB; mobile from $2/GB |
| Trial | $1.97 trial with residential and mobile bandwidth |
| Usage policy | Banking, payment and government sites blocked by default |
Pros
- Mobile proxies in almost every European country
- Every EU member state covered for residential
- Static residential IPs in 13 European countries
Cons
- Europe page gives two different figures for mobile and datacenter coverage
- No per-country IP counts on the Europe page
- Pay-as-you-go residential pricier than the budget options
4. SOAX — Best for targeting by European ISP and carrier

SOAX lists every European market we checked — the UK, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Poland, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark, Ukraine and Turkey — among its 195+ locations, but it has no Europe region page and no European total. What it does publish is more useful for planning: country pages that break the pool down by city and by network.
Its Germany page is a good example. It lists Berlin (14K+ IPs), Hamburg (13K+), Frankfurt am Main (10K+) and Munich (7K+), and networks led by O2 Deutschland (50K+), Deutsche Telekom (41K+) and Vodafone Germany (20K+), which together carry 87% of its German IPs; smaller regional networks such as EWE TEL, wilhelm.tel, M-net and NetCologne also appear. That lets you target a specific consumer network — Telekom in Germany, a MasOrange brand in Spain — when you need to reproduce what its customers see. Targeting covers country, region, city, ISP or mobile carrier and ASN, and mobile proxies use the same credits as residential.
SOAX prices by plan and by location tier. Its Germany page shows Tier 1 pricing: the no-fee Sandbox costs $5/GB, Builder $3/GB on a $200 monthly plan, Team $2.20/GB, Scale $1.50/GB and Enterprise from $0.85/GB. Tier 2 and Tier 3 locations are cheaper, down to $0.35/GB. There's no free trial — SOAX says Sandbox is the way to test — and credits on Sandbox or a monthly plan expire 60 days after they're added.
| Key facts | |
|---|---|
| European coverage | All 12 markets we checked listed; no Europe total |
| Example (Germany) | Berlin 14K+, Hamburg 13K+; O2 50K+, Telekom 41K+, Vodafone 20K+ |
| Targeting | Country, region, city, ISP, mobile carrier, ASN |
| Types in Europe | Residential, mobile (same credits) |
| Pricing | Tier 1: $5/GB Sandbox → $3/GB Builder → from $0.85/GB Enterprise |
| Trial | No free trial; credits expire after 60 days on monthly plans |
Pros
- Per-city and per-network IP counts on country pages
- Targeting by named European ISP and mobile carrier
- Mobile at the same price as residential
Cons
- No Europe page or European total
- Country pages list residential and mobile only
- Credits expire after 60 days
5. Decodo — Best for a low-risk start

Decodo (formerly Smartproxy) has a dedicated Europe page that lists its largest European residential pools: Germany 2.3M+ IPs, France 1.8M+, the UK 1.7M+ and Spain 730K+, with the Netherlands at 400K+ on its main locations list. Every other market we checked — Italy, Poland, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark, Ukraine and Turkey — is listed, without a count. The Europe page mixes figures, citing both a 125M+ global pool and a "50+ million" pool in its text, so treat those as global rather than European totals.
Targeting goes down to state, city, ZIP code and ASN, and the Europe page highlights city targeting in London and Berlin. Decodo's Trust Center lists ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification and EWDCI membership, and offers a Data Processing Agreement as a downloadable legal document — useful if your procurement team needs paperwork before a trial.
Residential pay-as-you-go costs $4/GB, and monthly plans fall from $3.75/GB (3 GB) through $3/GB at 50 GB to $2/GB at 1,000 GB, all plus VAT. A free trial and a 14-day money-back option are offered; read the refund conditions before you rely on them. Decodo is a sensible way to check whether residential IPs in several European countries work on your targets before you commit to a larger plan.
| Key facts | |
|---|---|
| European pool | Germany 2.3M+, France 1.8M+, UK 1.7M+, Spain 730K+, Netherlands 400K+ residential |
| Targeting | Continent, country, state, city, ZIP, ASN |
| Types in Europe | Residential, mobile, datacenter |
| Pricing | $4/GB pay-as-you-go; $3.75 → $2/GB on plans (plus VAT) |
| Compliance | ISO/IEC 27001:2022, EWDCI; DPA in its Trust Center |
| Trial / refund | Free trial; 14-day money-back option |
Pros
- Free trial plus a money-back option
- ISO 27001 certification and a published DPA
- ZIP and ASN targeting in European countries
Cons
- Counts published only for its top five European countries
- Europe page mixes global and European pool figures
- Prices exclude VAT
6. IPRoyal — Best for irregular, multi-country usage

IPRoyal's Europe page claims 48,115,588 European IPs across 43 countries — the largest European total we found from a provider that publishes one — and covers every market we checked (Turkey is listed under Asia). It sells every product type in Europe: rotating residential, ISP (static residential), mobile and datacenter proxies, and its country pages go down to individual cities.
Its main advantage for European work is that residential traffic never expires. Pan-European projects often run in bursts — a Black Friday price check across several Amazon EU stores, a quarterly SEO audit in six languages — so buying a block of gigabytes and spending it over months can work out cheaper than a monthly plan. Pay-as-you-go costs $7.35 for 1 GB and falls to $1.84/GB at 10 TB; subscriptions run from $7/GB down to $1.75/GB at 10 TB, which is the "from $1.75/GB" on the Europe page. Sticky sessions last up to 7 days.
For account work, IPRoyal's ISP proxies start from $1.80 per proxy, mobile proxies from $10.11 per day and datacenter proxies from $1.39 per proxy. The Europe page doesn't name the ISPs or carriers behind these products or publish per-country IP counts.
| Key facts | |
|---|---|
| European pool | 48,115,588 IPs across 43 countries |
| Targeting | Country, city |
| Types in Europe | Rotating residential, ISP, mobile, datacenter |
| Pricing | Residential $7.35/GB (1 GB) → $1.75–$1.84/GB at 10 TB; ISP from $1.80/proxy; mobile from $10.11/day; datacenter from $1.39/proxy |
| Sessions | Rotating or sticky up to 7 days |
| Protocols | HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS5 |
Pros
- Largest published European total among providers that give one
- Residential traffic never expires
- All four proxy types available in Europe
Cons
- Expensive for small residential purchases
- No per-country counts on the Europe page
- Headline price only applies at 10 TB
7. Proxy-Seller — Best for dedicated static IPs and GDPR paperwork

Proxy-Seller is different from most of this list: its core product is dedicated (private) IPv4 proxies, sold per IP for fixed periods, with unlimited traffic. Its locations page lists about 20 European countries — including England, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Poland, Sweden, Belgium and Ukraine, plus Switzerland, the Baltic states, Czechia, Romania, Portugal and Bulgaria — and Turkey under Asia. Denmark isn't on the list. European IPs start from $0.82 or $0.90 per IP; on the Ukraine page, prices fall from $0.76 per IP for a week on small orders to $0.45 per IP at 2,000 IPs.
Its rotating residential pool claims 47M+ IPs in 220+ locations with country, state, city and ISP targeting, priced at $3.50/GB on the standard plan, from $1.45/GB on volume plans and from $0.30/GB on enterprise deals. SOCKS5 is supported and, per the residential page, also carries UDP and QUIC (HTTP/3) traffic.
What earns Proxy-Seller a place in a European guide is its compliance documentation. Its residential page states that IPs are sourced through residential user agreements obtained with informed consent, and lists GDPR, CCPA and ePrivacy Directive compliance, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO 9001:2015 certification, the EWDCI Trust Seal, and "DPA/SCC-ready" contracts. Refund terms differ between pages: the residential and Ukraine pages offer a replacement or refund within 24 hours, the IPv4 page within 72 hours.
| Key facts | |
|---|---|
| European coverage | ~20 European countries for dedicated IPv4; residential 47M+ IPs in 220+ locations |
| Targeting | Country, state, city, ISP (residential) |
| Types in Europe | Dedicated IPv4/IPv6, ISP, mobile, residential |
| Pricing | IPv4 from $0.49/IP (bulk) or $0.82–$0.90/IP; residential $3.50/GB → from $1.45/GB |
| Compliance | GDPR, CCPA, ePrivacy; ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO 9001:2015; DPA/SCC-ready |
| Refund | Replacement or refund within 24 hours (72 hours on the IPv4 page) |
Pros
- Cheap dedicated static IPs in about 20 European countries
- States DPA/SCC readiness and ISO certifications
- Unlimited traffic on dedicated proxies
Cons
- Dedicated IPv4 proxies are datacenter IPs, easily flagged by marketplaces
- No per-country residential list or IP counts
- Refund window differs between pages
8. Infatica — Best for privacy certifications

Infatica's Europe page lists residential proxies in the UK, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Poland, Sweden, Ukraine and Turkey, and its location index has separate pages for Belgium and Denmark. It doesn't give a European IP count — only that each plan includes its 45M+ worldwide pool — but it supports country, city and ZIP targeting and lets you target several European markets from one plan.
Its distinguishing feature is certification. Infatica's certifications page lists ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (information security), ISO/IEC 27701:2019 (privacy information management), ISO/IEC 20000-1:2018 (IT service management) and ISO 22301:2019 (business continuity). ISO 27701 is the privacy extension to ISO 27001 and is designed to map onto GDPR obligations, which can shorten a European vendor assessment. The certifications page says IPs are sourced from consenting users; it doesn't mention a DPA, so ask for one if you need it.
Residential traffic costs $4/GB pay-as-you-go. Monthly packages fall from $3.84/GB (25 GB for $96) to $2.60/GB (1,000 GB for $2,600), and annual billing brings that down to $2.08/GB at 12,000 GB. A 7-day trial costs $4 and includes 1 GB of traffic, whichever runs out first.
| Key facts | |
|---|---|
| European coverage | UK, Germany, France, Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Poland, Sweden, Ukraine, Turkey on the Europe page; Belgium and Denmark pages |
| Targeting | Country, city, ZIP |
| Types in Europe | Residential (HTTP and SOCKS) |
| Pricing | $4/GB pay-as-you-go; $3.84 → $2.60/GB monthly; from $2.08/GB annual |
| Certifications | ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO/IEC 27701:2019, ISO/IEC 20000-1:2018, ISO 22301:2019 |
| Trial | $4 for 7 days or 1 GB |
Pros
- Four ISO certifications, including the ISO 27701 privacy standard
- Cheap, short trial
- ZIP targeting in European countries
Cons
- No European or per-country IP counts
- Belgium and Denmark missing from its Europe page list
- No DPA mentioned on its certifications page
9. Novada — Best for rotating ISP traffic

Novada lists every market we checked on its locations page (Turkey under Asia) and publishes counts for its three biggest European pools: 2,838,522 IPs in the UK, 1,645,228 in Germany and 1,257,655 in France. Its UK page gives a slightly different UK figure (2,838,117), and no counts are shown for other European countries.
Novada's distinguishing product is rotating ISP proxies: ISP-registered IPs that change per request, which can be faster and steadier than peer-to-peer residential exits for high-volume European scraping. It also sells static ISP proxies for account work, residential and datacenter proxies, with free city-level targeting.
Pricing is the part to check carefully, because Novada's own pages disagree. The locations page quotes residential from $1.30/GB, rotating ISP from $0.65/GB and static ISP from $1.18 per IP; the UK page quotes residential from $3.60/GB, rotating ISP from $3.96/GB, static ISP from $4.50 per IP and datacenter from $0.97/GB. The lower figures are likely large-volume rates, but confirm the checkout price for your country and plan size. The UK page lists HTTP(S) only and doesn't mention a trial.

10. DataImpulse — Best budget option

DataImpulse has the lowest residential price on this list — $1/GB, falling to $0.80/GB at 1 TB — and its traffic never expires. It's also one of the few providers that publishes a residential IP count for every European location: 47 in total, led by Russia (648,156), Italy (433,631), the UK (350,247), Spain (263,669), Ukraine (249,107), Germany (231,591) and France (194,271). Its general locations page lists 713,054 residential IPs in Turkey.
Those numbers show where a budget pool is strong and where it's thin. Southern and Eastern Europe are well covered, but the Netherlands (26,511), Belgium (22,671), Sweden (15,458) and Denmark (6,553) are much smaller pools, so plan for lower request rates or a second provider in Benelux and the Nordics. DataImpulse describes its pool as first-party, with IPs "sourced directly and legally from people with full user consent" and no resold networks.
Country-level targeting is included in the price; state, city, ZIP and ASN targeting cost extra. The one-time $5 intro pack (5 GB) works as a low-risk trial, and the Basic plan gives 50 GB for $50. HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 are both supported.

Other providers we considered
- Rayobyte — its residential product page says its IPs come from 50M+ opted-in devices a month across 190+ countries, with city, ZIP and ASN targeting. Its support article lists static ISP IPs in the UK, Germany, France and Italy, and static datacenter IPs in the UK, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland and Spain, but it publishes no per-country residential list for Europe.
- Webshare — its homepage lists 1,547,939 IPs in Germany, 1,174,275 in France and 830,343 in Spain from an 80M+ global pool, and it's a cheap source of datacenter IPs. Its old locations URL returned a 404, so we couldn't check its full European list.
- MarsProxies — lists about 45 European countries with their own pages, including all 12 markets we checked except Turkey, and claims 243,842 UK IPs, but publishes few per-country details.
- NodeMaven — its locations page gives a European total of 404,847 IPs, with residential and mobile proxies and city and ISP targeting.
- Geonode — lists 44 European countries as "online", including Russia and Belarus, but no per-country IP counts on its locations page.
- Thordata — its locations page has dedicated pages for only the UK, Germany, France and the Netherlands in Europe.
- Floppydata — its residential page claims 148 countries from $1/GB and links to France, Germany and Poland pages, but publishes no European list or counts.
- Live Proxies — advertises geo-targeting in 50+ countries; its help center describes the UK as one of three primary regions, alongside the US and Canada.
- HypeProxies — its own blog says its ISP product covers the US only in 2026, so it isn't an option for European IPs.
- NetNut — not recommended. On 2 July 2026 the FBI seized hundreds of domains associated with NetNut, and Google's Threat Intelligence Group reported that it disrupted the NetNut residential proxy network and the associated "Popa" botnet.
We also excluded brands linked to the IPIDEA network, regardless of their European coverage.
Which proxy type do you need in Europe?
| Use case | Proxy type | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Price monitoring across Amazon EU stores, Zalando, Otto, Allegro, bol.com | Rotating residential (country level) | Prices, VAT and delivery fees are localised by country; you need many clean IPs per country |
| Local SEO across European Google domains | Rotating residential with city targeting | Results differ by country, language and city |
| Travel and classifieds data | Rotating residential with sticky sessions | Well-protected sites with multi-step searches |
| Marketplace and ad accounts (Amazon Seller Central, Vinted, Meta, Google Ads) | Static ISP or mobile | One stable IP per account avoids security checks and linked-account flags |
| Social media and app testing | Mobile on a European carrier | Carrier IPs carry the highest trust on social platforms |
| Ad verification in several markets | Residential or mobile, city and carrier level | Campaigns are often targeted by country, region and mobile network |
| Bulk crawling of lightly protected sites | Datacenter (Frankfurt, Amsterdam, London) | Fastest and cheapest per request where blocking is light |
Picking by country
Most European projects end up weighting one or two markets more than the rest. Our country guides go into city coverage, local ISPs and carriers, and pricing for each.
United Kingdom. The UK is outside the EU but one of the deepest proxy markets in Europe, with millions of IPs at the large providers. See the best United Kingdom proxies.
Germany. Europe's largest e-commerce market and home to the Frankfurt hosting hub, which means many "German" datacenter IPs. See the best Germany proxies.
France. Deep residential pools at most providers and strong local platforms. See the best France proxies.
Netherlands. Amsterdam is a major hosting hub, so check that "Dutch" IPs aren't hosting ranges; Oxylabs lists 1,873,324 Dutch IPs, DataImpulse only 26,511 residential ones. See the best Netherlands proxies.
Spain. Fibre almost everywhere and four big operator groups. See the best Spain proxies.
Italy. Several providers publish large Italian pools — Oxylabs claims 3,634,314 IPs and DataImpulse 433,631 — and ProxyEmpire names TIM, Vodafone, WindTre and Iliad for mobile. We don't have a dedicated Italy guide yet.
Poland. Allegro dominates e-commerce and Polish pools are deep at Oxylabs (2,262,858 IPs). See the best Poland proxies.
Belgium. A bilingual market split between Dutch and French, where IP country and browser language need to match. See the best Belgium proxies.
Nordics. Pools are much smaller than in the big markets — Oxylabs lists 125,738 IPs in Sweden and 55,729 in Denmark — so check availability first. See the best Denmark proxies.
Ukraine and Turkey. Both have large pools at several providers (Oxylabs claims 3,601,126 Ukrainian IPs; DataImpulse 713,054 Turkish residential IPs), but many providers file Turkey under Asia. We don't have dedicated guides for these countries yet.
Russia. Covered separately because of sanctions and provider policies: see the best Russia proxies.
How to test a European proxy
Before you scale up, check that the IPs you're given really are where the provider says, in every country you plan to use.
- Check geolocation in more than one database. Geolocation databases disagree, especially for mobile IPs and for small countries near borders — a Belgian or Luxembourg IP can geolocate to a neighbouring country.
- Check the ASN. A residential IP should belong to a consumer network such as Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Vodafone or a regional operator. An ASN belonging to a hosting company in Frankfurt, Amsterdam or London means you've been given a datacenter exit, whatever the product page says.
- Match your browser to the country. Set
Accept-Language, browser locale and time zone to the IP's country — Europe spans several time zones, from Europe/Lisbon and Europe/London to Europe/Istanbul. A German IP with US English settings is an obvious mismatch for anti-bot systems. - Check for leaks. Test for WebRTC and DNS leaks, and make sure your real IPv6 address isn't bypassing the proxy.
- Run your scraper close to Europe. Exit nodes in Europe add latency if your servers are in the US or Asia. Use a European cloud region (such as Frankfurt, Amsterdam, London or Paris) where possible, and compare time-to-first-byte during trials.
- Test each country against your real targets. Pool depth varies a lot by country at the same provider. A provider that works well in Germany may have a thin pool in Denmark, so run a small batch per country before buying a large plan.
Legal notes
Using a proxy is legal throughout the EU, the UK and the rest of Europe. What you do through it is what matters, and a few areas of law come up in most European projects. This section is general information, not legal advice.
- GDPR and personal data. If you collect personal data about people in the EU — names, profiles, reviews, contact details — the GDPR applies, whether or not the data is publicly visible. You need a lawful basis (for scraping, usually legitimate interests, which requires a balancing test), you should minimise what you collect, and data subjects keep their rights. The UK applies the UK GDPR, and the EEA countries apply the GDPR itself. National data protection authorities enforce these rules and have fined companies for scraping personal data.
- Databases. The EU Database Directive gives makers of databases a sui generis right that protects a substantial investment in obtaining, verifying or presenting their contents. Extracting or re-using a substantial part of a protected database — or repeatedly extracting insubstantial parts — can infringe that right even when individual facts aren't protected by copyright. Website terms of use may restrict automated access too.
- Unauthorised access. Every European country criminalises unauthorised access to computer systems, but the wording and thresholds differ — for example, Spain's article 197 bis of its Criminal Code or the UK's Computer Misuse Act 1990. Bypassing logins, paywalls or technical access controls you aren't entitled to use can fall under these laws, with or without a proxy. Our country guides cover the relevant national law.
- Text and data mining and the EU AI Act. The EU's 2019 copyright directive allows text and data mining of lawfully accessible content unless the rightsholder has reserved that right in a machine-readable way, such as in
robots.txtor site terms. The EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) requires providers of general-purpose AI models to have a policy for respecting those reservations. If you collect European web data to train AI models, check rightsholders' opt-outs. - Sanctions. EU and UK sanctions restrict dealings with listed Russian and Belarusian persons and certain services involving those countries. Read the provider's terms and your own obligations before buying IPs or services connected to them.
Choose a provider that explains how it obtains consent from the people whose devices route traffic, ask for a DPA if you'll process personal data, and take advice specific to your project if you plan large-scale collection of European data.

Frequently asked questions
Which proxy provider covers the most European countries?
On their own pages in November 2026, Bright Data listed about 50 European locations, from the big markets to microstates such as Andorra, San Marino and the Vatican; DataImpulse listed 47 European locations with residential IP counts; Oxylabs listed 44 European countries (39,961,765 IPs in total); IPRoyal 43 countries (48,115,588 IPs); and ProxyEmpire 39 locations, including all 27 EU member states. All ten providers on our list cover the UK, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain and Italy.
What is the best type of proxy for Europe?
Rotating residential proxies are the best default for scraping European e-commerce, search and travel sites, because the IPs come from home connections in the country you target. Mobile proxies on European carriers suit social media and app testing, static ISP or dedicated IPs suit long-lived accounts, and datacenter proxies only suit lightly protected sites. Many datacenter IPs labelled "European" sit in hosting hubs such as Frankfurt, Amsterdam and London.
Are EU proxies GDPR compliant?
A proxy itself is neither compliant nor non-compliant. Two questions matter: whether the provider obtained consent from the people whose devices route your traffic, and whether you process personal data lawfully when you collect it. Some providers publish evidence that helps your own assessment — Bright Data, Oxylabs, Decodo, Proxy-Seller and Infatica publish ISO certifications, and Decodo and Proxy-Seller state that a Data Processing Agreement is available.
Can I get one proxy plan that covers every European country?
Yes. Rotating residential plans from the large providers are billed per GB and let you switch country per request with a country code in the username or a parameter, so one plan covers Germany, Poland and Spain alike. Prices can differ by country at some providers: SOAX, for example, sorts locations into three price tiers, and its Germany page shows Tier 1 pricing.
How much do European proxies cost?
In November 2026, European residential traffic started at $1/GB at DataImpulse and ranged up to $7.35 for a single GB at IPRoyal, with committed plans falling to roughly $0.80 to $2.60 per GB. Oxylabs' Europe page quoted mobile from $3.50/GB and dedicated datacenter IPs from $1.20 each, and Proxy-Seller's dedicated IPv4 proxies started at $0.49 per IP a week on large orders.
Is it legal to use proxies in Europe?
Using a proxy is legal across the EU, the UK and the rest of Europe. What you do through it is what matters: the GDPR applies when you collect personal data about people in the EU, the EU sui generis database right protects substantial investment in databases, and each country has its own computer-misuse law against unauthorised access. Sanctions also restrict dealings involving Russia and Belarus. This is general information, not legal advice.
