NUTS:SE ISO 3166-2:SE

ISO 3166-2:SE is an ISO standard which defines geocodes: it is the subset of ISO 3166-2 which applies to Sweden. It covers the 21 Counties, or län. The first part is the ISO 3166-1 code SE. The second part of the code, which is used domestically, is alphabetic 1-digit, except three cases which are 2-digit.

The ordering is based on a geographical "path" starting in Stockholm and then passing clockwise through the counties of southern Sweden and finally the northern counties.

Until 1967 the City of Stockholm was assigned the letter code A, while Stockholm County had the letter B.
