ISO 3166-2:UG is the entry for Uganda in ISO 3166-2, part of the ISO 3166 standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), which defines codes for the names of the principal subdivisions (e.g., provinces or states) of all countries coded in ISO 3166-1.

Contents

Currently for Uganda, ISO 3166-2 codes are defined for 4 geographical regions, 111 districts, and 1 city.

As of 2010, Uganda is divided into 111 districts and 1 city council (the capital of the country Kampala), but the newly created districts and city council are not listed.

Each code consists of two parts, separated by a hyphen. The first part is UG, the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code of Uganda. The second part is either of the following:

  • one letter: geographical regions
  • three digits: districts and city
  • For the districts, the first digit indicates the geographical region where the district is in:

  • 1: Central
  • 2: Eastern
  • 3: Northern
  • 4: Western
  • Current codes

    Subdivision names are listed as in the ISO 3166-2 standard published by the ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency (ISO 3166/MA).
