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.
