This table is that call. One state by code is /state/FL, and the same shape covers provinces, prefectures, and regions in every country we carry. Same endpoint on every plan, one pooled request per lookup.
QUESTIONS
- Are these the official codes?
- Yes, the USPS two-letter abbreviations, the ones addresses and government forms use. AP-style abbreviations like Calif. are a different, older system.
- What are AA, AE, and AP?
- Military postal regions for mail to armed forces overseas: the Americas, Europe, and the Pacific. They work like states in an address.
- Is DC a state?
- No, it is a federal district, but it has a two-letter code and works like a state in every address form. It sits in the main table for that reason.
- Can I do this from code?
- Yes. GET /country/US/states returns the list, and /state/FL answers one code with coordinates and timezones. Paid deep adds population and other state details. One pooled request per call.
