ISO 3166-2: AN

ISO 3166-2: AN was the standard used to identify geographical units of the Netherlands Antilles , it only contained the code for the Netherlands Antilles - there were no further subdivisions.

This code consisted of only one part. This gave the code according to ISO 3166-1 (for the Netherlands Antilles AN ). The country code was not updated after its publication in 1998 until it was finally deleted on December 15, 2010 after the dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles on October 10, 2010.
