# ISO 3166-2:ES

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Main article: ISO 3166-2

ISO 3166-2:ES is the entry for Spain 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 Spain, ISO 3166-2 codes are defined for two levels of subdivisions:

- 17 autonomous communities and 2 autonomous cities in North Africa
- 50 provinces

Each code consists of two parts, separated by a hyphen. The first part is `ES`, the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code of Spain. The second part is one or two letters. For the provinces, the letters were originally used in vehicle registration plates. The codes for the following provinces are based on their capitals:

- Álava/Araba (`ES-VI`): Vitoria
- Asturias (`ES-O`): Oviedo
- Balears (`ES-PM`): Palma
- Cantabria (`ES-S`): Santander
- Guipúzcoa/Gipuzkoa (`ES-SS`): San Sebastián
- La Rioja (`ES-LO`): Logroño
- Las Palmas (`ES-GC`): Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
- Vizcaya/Bizkaia (`ES-BI`): Bilbao

## [edit] Current codes

Subdivision names are listed as in the ISO 3166-2 standard published by the ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency (ISO 3166/MA).

ISO 639-1 codes are used to represent subdivision names in the following administrative languages:

- (ca): Catalan
- (eu): Basque
- (gl): Galician

In the autonomous communities of Galicia, Catalonia and the Balearics, the respective regional languages are the sole official languages of toponymy. Old toponymic Castilian language forms are given in square brackets for information. For the toponyms of the autonomous communities of Navarra, Valencia and the Basque Country, the regional language has co-official status with Castilian. Toponymic regional language forms having equal status to that of Castilian are given after a slash mark (in accordance with the official Spanish form of presentation).

- `EA` Ceuta, Melilla
- `IC` Canary Islands

However, these codes do not correspond in any way to the ISO 3166-2 codes of the territories.
