ISO 3166

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

ISO 3166 are the codes for the Representation of Names of Countries (ISO 3166) and is prepared by the International Organization for Standardization.

What are these codes?[edit | edit source]

ISO 3166 includes two- and three-character alphabetic codes and three-digit numeric codes that may be needed for activities involving exchange of data with international organizations that have adopted that standard.

Adaptation in the United States[edit | edit source]

Except for the numeric codes, ISO 3166 codes have been adopted in the US as FIPS 104-1: American National Standard Codes for the Representation of Names of Countries, Dependencies, and Areas of Special Sovereignty for Information Interchange.
