Iso Country List
ISO 3166-1 gives every country and many territories three codes: a two-letter code (US, DE, JP), a three-letter code (USA, DEU, JPN) and a three-digit number. This list has all 249, searchable by name or code, filterable by region and ready to download — plus a converter for turning a list of codes from one format into another.

The three ISO 3166-1 codes
| Code | Format | Example (Germany) | Typical uses |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alpha-2 | Two letters | DE | Internet country domains (mostly), postal and banking systems, language tags like en-DE |
| Alpha-3 | Three letters | DEU | Passports and travel documents, statistics, sports results |
| Numeric | Three digits | 276 | Systems that need script-independent codes; UN statistics (M49) |
Alpha-2 codes are the most widely used in software. Most country-code internet domains follow them, with some exceptions — the United Kingdom uses .uk although its alpha-2 code is GB.

Worked example
An online shop stores customers’ countries as alpha-2 codes but a shipping partner wants alpha-3. Pasting “US, GB, DE, FR, JP, BR” into the converter and choosing Alpha-3 gives USA, GBR, DEU, FRA, JPN and BRA. A developer then filters the list to Europe, downloads it as SQL and loads the table into the shop database to validate country fields.
Things to know
- The list includes countries and dependent territories (such as Greenland and Puerto Rico), plus Antarctica — 249 entries in total, not only UN member states.
- Codes can change when countries change name or split: Czechia is CZ, North Macedonia MK, Eswatini SZ, South Sudan SS (added 2011).
- Some codes are reserved or user-assigned — for example XK is widely used for Kosovo but is not an official ISO 3166-1 code.
- Names shown are short English forms and may differ slightly from ISO’s official short names.
- ISO 3166-2 defines codes for subdivisions such as states and provinces (US-CA, DE-BY); those are not listed here.
