India is a vast country in South Asia characterized by the Himalayan mountains in the north, fertile river plains, the Deccan Plateau, diverse forests, and extensive coastlines along the Indian Ocean.

๐Ÿ“ India is a large country located in South Asia, occupying most of the Indian subcontinent and extending from the Himalayas in the north to the Indian Ocean in the south. It is bordered by Pakistan to the northwest, China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the north, and Bangladesh and Myanmar to the east, with coastlines along the Arabian Sea to the west and the Bay of Bengal to the east, and the Indian Ocean to the south.
Indiaโ€™s landscape is extremely diverse, featuring the towering Himalayas in the north, fertile plains such as the Indo-Gangetic Plain, deserts like the Thar Desert in the west, and tropical regions in the south. Major rivers, including the Ganges and Brahmaputra, play vital roles in agriculture and culture. Indiaโ€™s size and location have made it one of the worldโ€™s oldest centers of civilization, trade, and cultural exchange.

What is the ISO Code for India?

ISO country codes come from the international standard ISO 3166 created by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). These codes are used globally in databases, aviation systems, banking, shipping, and international data systems to uniquely identify countries and territories.

ISO 3166-1 codes are the two-letter country codes such as US, FR, or IN. These are called Level-1 ISO codes.

Only ISO 3166-1 codes support flag emojis. Flag emojis are created by combining two Unicode regional indicator letters that match the country's ISO two-letter code.

India is assigned the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code:

IN

Subdivision codes do not have flag emojis.
