Zambia
Zambia, located in the African region, is identified globally by the ISO 3166 codes ZM (two-letter) and ZMB (three-letter). The country's primary international calling code is +260, which is required when dialing Zambian phone numbers from abroad. The internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) is .zm, used for local domain registrations. Zambia's official currency is the Zambian Kwacha, abbreviated as ZMW. These identifiers are essential for practical applications: businesses use the ISO codes for financial transactions and trade, individuals use +260 for international calls, and organizations register .zm domains to establish a local web presence. These standardized codes ensure clear and accurate digital, telephonic, and financial communication.
