ISO 3166-2:KN

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ISO 3166-2:KN is the entry for Saint Kitts and Nevis 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 subdivisions (e.g., provinces or states) of all countries coded in ISO 3166-1.

Currently for Saint Kitts and Nevis, ISO 3166-2 codes are defined for two levels of subdivisions:

  • 2 states (i.e., the islands of Saint Kitts and Nevis)
  • 14 parishes

Each code consists of two parts, separated by a hyphen. The first part is KN, the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code of Saint Kitts and Nevis. The second part is either of the following:

  • one letter: states
  • two digits (01–15 except 14): parishes

Current codes[]
