European Case Law Identifier

The European Case Law Identifier (ECLI) has been offering a uniform system for citing court decisions since 2011. Except for the courts of the EU, the Council of Europe ( ECHR ) and the Boards of Appeal of the European Patent Office, the ECLI is currently (mid-2020) in Germany, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Estonia, Finland, Croatia, Latvia, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Slovakia, Slovenia and the Czech Republic in use; at least for higher courts also in France, Greece and Italy. Its third position (after the letter sequence ECLI in the first position and a two-digit country code in the second position) is a court code according to the following pattern:
