Code of a country subdivision from ISO 3166-2 written without the hyphen between the two-letter country code and the subdivision part, as in UYAR for Artigas, Uruguay (UY-AR). Uruguayan open data writes department codes this way. Any short upper-case code has the same shape, so the form alone does not identify the type; the column name and the country do.
