List of IOC country codes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of International Olympic Committee (IOC) country codes.

There are 206 current NOCs (National Olympic Committees) within the Olympic Movement. The following tables show the currently used code for each NOC and any different codes used in past Games, per the official reports from those Games. Some of the past code usage is further explained in the following sections. Codes used specifically for a Summer Games only or a Winter Games only, within the same year, are indicated by "S" and "W" respectively.

Most National Paralympic Committees (NPC) cover a territory with an active NOC. In these cases the NPC codes matches the IOC codes shown above. The two current NPCs without a corresponding NOC use the following NPC codes.

Historic NOCs and teams[edit] Codes still in use[edit]

Fourteen historical NOCs or teams have codes that are still used in the IOC results database[11] to refer to past medal winners from these teams.

Unlike the previous list, these codes no longer appear in the IOC results database. When a past athlete from one of these teams has won a medal, the new code is shown next to them instead.

Two other significant code changes have occurred, both because of a change in the nation's designation as used by the IOC:

Special codes for Olympics[edit] Code Nation/team Years Notes AIN  Individual Neutral Athletes
from French Athlètes Individuels Neutres 2024 Used for Russian and Belarusian athletes competing as neutrals due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The delegation will use a flag and a one-off instrumental anthem assigned by the IOC. ANZ  Australasia 1908–1912 Used in the IOC's medal database[11] to identify the team from Australasia, composed of athletes from both Australia and New Zealand for the 1908 and 1912 Games.
Both nations competed separately by 1920. COR  Korea
from French Corée 2018 Used for the unified Korean women's ice hockey team at the 2018 Winter Olympics.[15] EOR  Refugee Olympic Team
from French Équipe olympique des réfugiés 2016–2024 Used for the Refugee Olympic Team, for athletes who have been displaced from their home countries. The IOC code was changed from ROT which was used in 2016.[16] EUA  United Team of Germany
from French Équipe unifiée d'Allemagne 1956–1964 Used in the IOC's medal database[11] to identify the United Team of Germany, composed of athletes representing the NOCs of both East Germany and West Germany for the 1956–1964 Games.
The team was simply known as Germany in the official reports for those six games at the time. EUN  Unified Team
from French Équipe unifiée 1992 Used in 1992 (both Summer and Winter Games) for the Unified Team, composed of athletes from most of the former Soviet republics that chose to compete as a unified team.
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania entered separately in 1992, whereas Russia and eleven other post-Soviet nations competed independently for the first time in 1994 or 1996. IOP  Independent Olympic Participants Used for independent Olympic participants at the 1992 Summer Olympics as a designation used for athletes from FR Yugoslavia who could not compete as a team due to United Nations sanctions.
At the 1992 Summer Olympics IOP was used as a designation for athletes from the Republic of Macedonia too.
IOP was also used during the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi by Indian athletes due to the Indian Olympic Association suspension. IOA  Independent Olympic Athletes Used for Individual Olympic Athletes in 2000,[17] a designation used for athletes from Timor-Leste before the formation of its NOC.
IOA was used again in the 2012 Games, when it stood for Independent Olympic Athletes,[18] comprising athletes from the former Netherlands Antilles and a runner from South Sudan.
The Netherlands Antilles Olympic Committee's membership from the IOC was withdrawn the previous year, and South Sudan had not yet formed an NOC at the time.
IOA was used again in 2016 for athletes from Kuwait as a result of the suspension of its National Olympic Committee.[19] IOC  Athletes from Kuwait 2010–2012 Used as the country code for Athletes from Kuwait, when the Kuwait Olympic Committee was suspended the first time, at the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics, the 2010 Asian Games and the 2011 Asian Winter Games;
for the second suspension in 2015–2017, athletes from Kuwait were also competing in several international competitions under the IOC flag, but this time in the team of Individual Olympic Athletes (IOA), including (but not only) in the 2016 Summer Olympics. MIX  Mixed-NOCs 2010– Used as the country code for Mixed NOCs at the Youth Olympics.[20][21] OAR  Olympic Athletes from Russia 2018 Used for Olympic Athletes from Russia competing as neutral athletes due to the state-sponsored doping scandal.[22] ROC ROC
from the abbreviation for Russian Olympic Committee 2020–2022 Used for Russian Olympic Committee athletes at the 2020 Summer Olympics and 2022 Winter Olympics following the sanctions due to the state-sponsored doping scandal.[23][24]
The delegation used a flag depicting the logo of the Russian Olympic Committee. XXB  Mixed team 1896–1904 Used in the IOC's medal database to identify medals won by mixed teams of athletes from multiple nations (such as the combination of France and Great Britain), a situation that happened several times in the Games of 1896, 1900, and 1904. Until 2021, the IOC used the code ZZX for mixed teams.[11][25][b] In 2021, the code was changed to MIX, matching the code for mixed teams at the Youth Olympics.[26] In 2024, the code was changed to XXB.[27] Special codes for Paralympics[edit] Special codes for World Games[edit]

The World Games are a multi-sport event comprising sports and sporting disciplines that are not contested in the Olympic Games. The World Games are governed by the International World Games Association, under the patronage of the International Olympic Committee.
