Country name codes
ISO 3166-1:2006 provides a unique two-letter code for each country and a three-letter code for special uses. A three digit numeric code is given and intended as an alternative for all applications that need to be independent of the alphabet or to save bits in computer storage.
The list of two-letter country codes, as well as complete information about ISO 3166 are made available for the Web page of the ISO 3166/MA :
