Adventdalen in Svalbard

ISO 3166-2:SJ is the entry for Svalbard and Jan Mayen in ISO 3166-2 , part of the ISO 3166 standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The standard defines codes for names of principal subdivisions of all countries coded in ISO 3166-1 . Svalbard and Jan Mayen does not exist as an administrative region, but rather consists of two separate parts of Norway under separate jurisdictions? Svalbard and Jan Mayen . Further subdivision for Svalbard and Jan Mayen occurs under Norway's entry, ISO 3166-2:NO , namely NO-21 for Svalbard and NO-22 for Jan Mayen. There are currently no ISO 3166-2 codes for Svalbard and Jan Mayen. [1]

Allocation [ edit ]

Svalbard and Jan Mayen constitute two outlying areas of Norway. Svalbard is an archipelago in the Arctic about midway between mainland Norway and the North Pole . The group of islands ranges from 74° to 81° north latitude, and from 10° to 35° east longitude. [2] The Svalbard Treaty of 1920 recognizes Norwegian sovereignty, [3] and the 1925 Svalbard Act established administration by the appointed Governor of Svalbard . [4] Jan Mayen is a volcanic island in the Arctic Ocean located at the border of the Norwegian Sea and the Greenland Sea . Since 1994, the island has been administered by the county governor of Nordland , with some authority delegated to the station commander. [5]

Allocation of codes for Svalbard and Jan Mayen occurs under Norway's entry in ISO 3166-2, ISO 3166-2:NO . By virtue of the collective ISO 3166-1 code SJ , Svalbard and Jan Mayen were grouped together and allocated the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) .sj . [6] As with Bouvet Island's TLD .bv , policy prohibits any registration with the .sj domain, forcing institutions connected to Svalbard to use Norway's domain .no . [7]

Codes [ edit ]

There are currently no subdivisions assigned codes in ISO 3166-2:SJ. Svalbard and Jan Mayen are however given separate codes in Norway's ISO 3166-2 entry, ISO 3166-2:NO .
