FIFA assigns a three-letter country code (more properly termed a trigram or trigraph[1]) to each of its member and non-member countries. These are the official codes used by FIFA and its continental confederations (AFC, CAF, CONCACAF, CONMEBOL, OFC and UEFA) as name abbreviations of countries and dependent areas, in official competitions.
There are currently 212 FIFA members, each with its own unique country code:[2][3]
