This record is a draft: it has not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on it for compliance decisions. Help improve it (see CONTRIBUTING.md).

Code of one of the 12 Dutch provinces from ISO 3166-2:NL, two letters after NL-, such as NL-NH (Noord-Holland), NL-FR (Fryslân) or NL-ZH (Zuid-Holland), alone or with the country code. ISO 3166-2:NL also lists Aruba (NL-AW), Curaçao (NL-CW) and Sint Maarten (NL-SX) as countries and Bonaire, Saba and Sint Eustatius (NL-BQ1 to NL-BQ3) as special municipalities; they are not provinces and are not covered. Statistics Netherlands uses its own codes, the pattern nl_cbs_province_code.
