Germany

Germany’s identifiers include the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code DE and alpha-3 code DEU, used in international shipping, banking, and data systems. International callers use the country calling code +49 to reach German telephone numbers. The country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) .de is administered by DENIC and is one of the world’s most widely registered domain extensions. Germany’s currency is the euro (EUR), enabling seamless financial transactions across the Eurozone. In business contexts, DE and DEU appear in legal documentation, standardized address formats, and IBANs, while +49 and .de are essential for telephony and web presence targeting the German market.
