Latvia
Latvia, a European nation, is identified internationally by the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code LV and alpha-3 code LVA. These standardized codes are used in banking, shipping, and data systems. To call Latvia from abroad, dial the country calling code +371. Businesses and individuals register websites under the country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) .lv, managed by the University of Latvia. Latvia adopted the euro (EUR) as its official currency in 2014, simplifying financial transactions across the Eurozone. These identifiers are essential for telecommunications, e-commerce, domain registration, and cross-border financial operations involving Latvian entities.
