Look up country metadata by ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code (three letters such as ITA, DEU, or USA). The page shows the national flag plus structured details drawn from the site’s country dataset.
Data returned
For a valid ISO3 code you can inspect:
- Names and codes — common name, ISO2, ISO3, numeric code, FIPS, and GeoNames ID
- Geography — continent, capital city, and capital timezone
- Contact & commerce — international dialing prefix, top-level domain, currency, and spoken languages
- Cities — a sample list of major cities associated with the country
The flag image is served from /flags/{filename} and scales for quick visual identification in selectors or documentation.
When to use it
Handy when building address forms, localizing payment flows, checking dialing codes before SMS integration, or confirming which alpha-3 code maps to a country name you already know.
Limitations
Country data reflects a static snapshot at build time. Political renaming, currency changes, or disputed territories may lag behind real-world updates. ISO3 codes are case-sensitive lookups — use uppercase letters. The tool describes countries; it does not perform geolocation or IP-to-country mapping.
