Why Jersey has its own code

ISO 3166-1 assigns codes to territories as well as to sovereign states, because the codes are used for shipping, banking, internet domains, statistics and data exchange rather than as a statement about statehood. That is why this territory appears in country dropdowns, address forms and datasets alongside places many times its size.

Jersey holds the alpha-2 code JE, the alpha-3 code JEY, the numeric code 832 and the internet domain .je. The World Bank does not publish a separate population figure for it, so this page shows none rather than an estimate. Calls are routed through the code +44.
