ISO 3166-2:GB

ISO 3166-2:GB is an ISO standard which defines geocodes: it is the subset of ISO 3166-2 which applies to the United Kingdom.

The codes correspond to the administrative divisions of the UK:

England
- 34 counties
- 33 London Boroughs
- 36 metropolitan districts
- 46 unitary authorities including Isle of Wight
- 1 special area
Northern Ireland
- 26 district council areas
Scotland
- 32 council areas
Wales
- 22 unitary authorities

The Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are not part of the UK, but ISO offers codes for them under "GB-".

The first part of each code is the ISO 3166-1 code GB for the United Kingdom, and the second part is a three-letter code, which is the same as in the British Standard BS 6879.
