About Country & Currency Info — Country Currency Info & ISO Currency Code Lookup

This free country currency info tool lets you instantly look up any country's ISO alpha-2 code, capital city, world region, ISO 4217 currency code, currency name, currency symbol, and primary timezone identifier — all in one searchable table. Type any country name, ISO code, capital, or currency code into the search box and the results filter in real time. All data is bundled directly in the page so the tool works with no internet connection and makes no API calls. No account or sign-up is required.

Developers building international e-commerce platforms, payment systems, invoicing tools, and localization frameworks use this ISO currency code lookup constantly. Getting the right ISO 4217 currency code or ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code is critical for APIs that process international payments, for tax calculations that vary by country, and for data validation when accepting user-submitted country and currency fields. This tool consolidates eight data points per country into a single searchable reference so you can find what you need in seconds.

How to Use the Country Currency Info Tool

  1. Type in the search box to filter the table in real time. You can search by country name (e.g. "Germany"), ISO alpha-2 code (e.g. "DE"), capital city (e.g. "Berlin"), currency name (e.g. "Euro"), or currency code (e.g. "EUR"). The filter searches across all columns simultaneously.
  2. Use the Region dropdown on the right to filter results by world region: Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa, or Oceania. Combine a region filter with a text search to narrow results further.
  3. Scan the table columns: Country, ISO (alpha-2 code), Capital, Region, Currency (name), Code (ISO 4217), Symbol, and Timezone.
  4. Copy any value directly from the table cell by selecting the text. Currency codes, country codes, and timezone identifiers can all be copied and pasted directly into your code or documents.
  5. The result count at the bottom of the table shows how many countries match your current filter, helping you confirm whether your search found what you expected.

Data Fields Included

  • Country name: The standard English name of the country as used in international contexts.
  • ISO alpha-2 code: The two-letter country code from ISO 3166-1, used in domain name extensions, API country fields, and international standards (e.g. US, GB, DE, JP).
  • Capital city: The primary capital or seat of government of the country.
  • Region: The world region classification — Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa, or Oceania.
  • Currency name: The official name of the country's primary currency (e.g. US Dollar, Euro, Japanese Yen).
  • ISO 4217 code: The three-letter currency code used in banking, finance, and international trade (e.g. USD, EUR, JPY).
  • Currency symbol: The commonly used symbol for the currency (e.g. $, €, ¥, £, ₹).
  • Timezone: The primary IANA timezone identifier used for the country's capital or largest population center (e.g. America/New_York, Europe/Berlin).

Tips for Getting the Best Results

  • Search by ISO code for fast exact matches: If you already know the 2-letter country code or 3-letter currency code, searching by code (e.g. "USD" or "IN") is faster than searching by name and returns an exact match immediately.
  • Use the region filter for bulk lookups: When you need to audit all European currencies or check all Asian country codes, apply a region filter first to reduce the list to a manageable subset before applying additional text searches.
  • Check the symbol column carefully for multi-country currencies: Several countries share the same currency symbol — for example, the dollar sign ($) is used for USD, CAD, AUD, and many others. Always use the ISO 4217 three-letter code (USD, CAD, AUD) in software rather than the symbol to avoid ambiguity.
  • Use timezone identifiers for scheduling and date/time logic: The IANA timezone identifiers (e.g. America/New_York, Asia/Tokyo) are the preferred format for programming timezone-aware date/time calculations. Copy these directly into your code for reliable daylight saving time handling.
  • Cross-reference with official sources for critical applications: For payment systems, banking integrations, or legal compliance, always verify codes against the official ISO standards website or your payment processor's documentation, as this tool reflects standard codes that are stable but updated periodically.

Why Use a Country Currency Info Tool Online

An online country currency info reference eliminates the need to maintain a local spreadsheet or consult multiple Wikipedia pages to find the data points needed for international software development. This tool loads all data in the browser, responds to search queries with no network round-trips, and works offline after initial page load — making it useful on flights, in secure environments, or anywhere internet access is unreliable. Because all data is embedded in the page, there are no API rate limits, no authentication tokens to manage, and no risk of the data source going offline.

E-commerce developers use this ISO currency code lookup when configuring payment gateways, tax engines, and multi-currency pricing. Back-end engineers use it to populate country and currency dropdown lists in admin interfaces. QA testers use it to verify that localization implementations return the correct currency symbol and code for each supported country. Accountants and finance teams use it to look up the correct ISO codes for international invoices and bank transfer forms where an incorrect code could cause a payment to be rejected.

Frequently Asked Questions about Country Currency Info

Currency codes follow the ISO 4217 standard, which is the internationally accepted three-letter code used in banking, international finance, and commerce. ISO 4217 codes are maintained by the International Organization for Standardization and are used by SWIFT, SEPA, and virtually all international payment systems. Examples include USD for the US Dollar, EUR for the Euro, GBP for the Pound Sterling, and JPY for the Japanese Yen.
Country codes use the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 standard — two-letter codes assigned by the International Organization for Standardization to every recognized country and territory. These codes are used in country-code top-level domain names (ccTLDs), API country fields, HTML lang attributes, postal systems, and international treaties. Examples include US for the United States, GB for the United Kingdom, DE for Germany, and CN for China.
The data reflects standard ISO codes, which change very rarely — currency code changes and new country codes are infrequent events. The dataset covers the most commonly used countries and currencies in international commerce and development. For newly recognized territories, recently changed currencies, or highly specialized financial applications, verify against the official ISO website or your payment processor's documentation before use in production systems.
Yes, the search box searches all columns including the Symbol column, so you can type a currency symbol such as € or ¥ to filter results. However, because multiple currencies share the same symbol — for example, the $ sign is used by USD, CAD, AUD, MXN, and others — searching by symbol may return multiple results. For unambiguous lookups, use the ISO 4217 three-letter currency code (EUR, JPY) instead of the symbol.
No. This tool contains only static reference data — country names, codes, capitals, regions, currency codes, symbols, and timezone identifiers. It does not fetch live exchange rates, and no API calls are made at any point. All data is bundled directly in the HTML page and processed locally in JavaScript. For live exchange rates, you need a dedicated currency exchange rate API such as Open Exchange Rates, Fixer, or the European Central Bank's API.
Several countries share a common currency. The Euro (EUR) is used by 20 EU member states. The East Caribbean Dollar (XCD) is used by eight Caribbean nations. The CFA Franc is used by multiple African countries under two regional unions (XOF and XAF). In these cases, each country has its own ISO country code, but multiple rows in the table will share the same ISO 4217 currency code and symbol. The search filter will show all countries using a shared currency when you search by that currency code.
Timezone identifiers use the IANA Time Zone Database format, also known as the tz database or Olson database format. Examples are America/New_York, Europe/London, Asia/Tokyo, and Australia/Sydney. These identifiers are the standard used in all major programming languages and frameworks for timezone-aware date/time handling. They correctly account for daylight saving time transitions, which UTC offsets alone cannot represent.
Yes. All filtering and searching runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript against a dataset embedded in the page. Nothing you type in the search box is sent to any server, and no usage analytics are collected by this tool. The page works completely offline once loaded, making it safe to use in secure or air-gapped environments where data privacy requirements prohibit sending queries to external services.
