📍 Malaysia is a country located in Southeast Asia, divided into two main regions separated by the South China Sea. Peninsular Malaysia lies on the Malay Peninsula, while East Malaysia is located on the island of Borneo. It is bordered by Thailand to the north, Indonesia to the south (on Borneo), and Brunei on the island of Borneo, with maritime proximity to Singapore to the south. It has coastlines along the South China Sea, as well as the Andaman Sea and the Strait of Malacca.
Malaysia’s landscape includes tropical rainforests, mountain ranges, and coastal plains. The country is rich in biodiversity and natural resources. Its position along major sea routes—especially the Strait of Malacca—has historically made it one of the most important centers for global trade and cultural exchange in Southeast Asia.

What is the ISO Code for Malaysia?

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 MY. 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.

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