ISO 3166-2:GB
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from BS 6879)
Template:Short description Template:DMCA Template:DMCA ISO 3166-2:GB is the entry for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (GBNI) in ISO 3166-2, part of the ISO 3166 standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), which defines codes for the names of the principal divisions and subdivisions (e.g., provinces or states) of all countries coded in ISO 3166-1.[1] The codes and structures for the United Kingdom (UK) are provided to the ISO in Geneva by the British Standards (BS) and the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
Primary divisions
Currently for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, ISO 3166-2 codes are defined for the following primary divisions and subdivisions:
- Three countries and one province, as follows:
- England
- 25 two-tier counties, 36 metropolitan districts, 58 unitary authorities, 32 London boroughs, and one city corporation
As of August 2025,[update] the standard has codes for the divisions in place until 31 March 2023. On 1 April 2023, the non-metropolitan county of Cumbria was abolished and replaced by two unitary authorities (Cumberland and Westmorland and Furness), as well as the non-metropolitan counties of North Yorkshire and Somerset became unitary authorities, which as of August 2025[update] are not reflected in ISO 3166-2.
- Northern Ireland
- Scotland
- Wales
Each ISO 3166-2:GB code consists of two parts; both parts are in upper-case capital letters, and are separated by a hyphen (without spaces). The first part for the is Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.GB, the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The second part is three letters, which is the British Standard BS 6879 three-letter code of the individual subdivision.
Though Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.GB is the United Kingdom's ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code, Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.UK is exceptionally reserved for the United Kingdom on the request of the country (United Kingdom). Its main usage is the Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content..uk internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) and, on 28 September 2021, Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.UK replaced Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.GB as the official country code on motor vehicle registration plates.[2]
Current codes
Subdivision names are listed as in the ISO 3166-2 standard, as published by the ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency (ISO 3166/MA).
BS 6879 gives alternative name forms in Welsh (Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.cy) for some of the Welsh unitary authorities (together with alternative code elements). Since this part of ISO 3166 does not allow for duplicate coding of identical subdivisions, such alternative names in Welsh and code elements are shown for information purposes only in square brackets after the English name of the subdivision.[1]
Countries and province

Wales was changed from being described as a 'principality' to being described as a 'country' in the December 2011 update to the standard. England and Scotland were maintained as 'country', and Northern Ireland was maintained as 'province'.[3]
