Updated on 05 February, 2026

Learn how to get NAT Gateway subscription information from the Vultr portal or API.

Retrieving a NAT Gateway subscription displays its current status, configuration, and assigned IP addresses. Review these details to verify the gateway's operational state, obtain identifiers for managing rules, or audit billing information.

Follow this guide to get a NAT Gateway subscription using the Vultr Customer Portal or API.

  • Vultr Customer Portal
  • Vultr API

  1. Navigate to Products, expand the Network drop-down and select VPC Networks.

  2. Select your target VPC Network with NAT Gateway connectivity.

    The VPC details page displays NAT Gateway information in the following sections:

    Details Section

    • VPC Address: Shows the NAT Gateway's private IP address within the VPC subnet.
    • Gateway IPv4 Address: Displays the public IPv4 address used for outbound internet traffic.
    • Gateway IPv6 Address: Shows the public IPv6 address assigned to the gateway.
    • UUID: The VPC's unique identifier.

    Attached Nodes Section

    The NAT Gateway appears as a managed node with the following information:

    • Name / UUID: Displays the NAT Gateway label and its unique identifier.
    • Status: Displays the operational state (Active or Pending).
    • VPC Address: The gateway's private IP address for internal VPC communication.
    • MAC Address: The network interface MAC address.
    Note
    The NAT Gateway cannot be clicked or expanded. View and manage firewall rules and port forwarding configurations in the NAT Firewall and NAT Port Forwarding sections below the Attached Nodes.

  1. Send a GET request to the List VPCs endpoint to retrieve available VPCs.

    console 
    $ curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/vpcs" \
    -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API_KEY}"

    The output displays all VPCs in your account. Note the id field for the target VPC.

  2. Send a GET request to the List NAT Gateway subscriptions endpoint to retrieve the gateway ID. Replace VPC_ID with the ID from the previous step.

    console 
    $ curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/vpcs/VPC_ID/nat-gateway" \
    -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API_KEY}"

    The output displays NAT Gateway subscriptions for the VPC. Note the id field for the target gateway.

  3. Send a GET request to the Get NAT Gateway subscription endpoint. Replace VPC_ID and NAT_GATEWAY_ID with your values.

    console 
    $ curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/vpcs/VPC_ID/nat-gateway/NAT_GATEWAY_ID" \
    -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API_KEY}"

    The output displays the complete NAT Gateway subscription details:

    • id: The NAT Gateway's unique identifier.
    • vpc_id: The VPC's unique identifier.
    • date_created: The gateway creation timestamp.
    • status: The operational state (active or pending).
