This package provides ready-to-use application models and seeds the database with ISO data from various sources. This package can be used in multi-language apps and supports Country/Language/Currency names in almost any locale.
- Countries: ISO 3166 alpha 2 (incl. names, capital, lat/lon coordinates, TLD, phone calling code, regions, population, gini, area)
- Languages: ISO 639-1 (incl. names, language-family, wiki link)
- Currencies: ISO 4217 (incl. names, symbol, decimal digits, rounding)
Unlike other packages, this one also includes relevant data relationships, such as:
// Official languages spoken in Luxembourg ('LU')
Country::find('LU')->languages;
// Currencies used in Ghana ('GH')
Country::find('GH')->currencies;
// Countries that have Spanish ('es') as one of their official languages
Language::find('es')->countries;
// Countries that use the Euro ('EUR') as currency
Currency::find('EUR')->countries;
You can install the package via composer:
composer require io238/laravel-iso-countries
The latest version of this package requires PHP version 8.0 or above. If you need support for PHP 7.4, please install version 2 of this package.
There is no need to run any migrations. All country data information is stored in a pre-compiled SQLITE database that is stored within this package.
By default, this database includes all country/language/¤cy names translated into English, German, French, and Spanish. If you want to compile your own database with other languages, please see the instructions here.
Country-level ISO data does not change very often. Nevertheless, if at any time you want to update the ISO data to the latest available version, you can manually re-seed the tables:
Optionally, you can publish the config file with:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Io238\ISOCountries\ISOCountriesServiceProvider" --tag="config"
In the config you can define, which translations of country/language/currency names you want to store in your DB.
This is the contents of the published config file:
[
// Supported locales for names (countries, languages, currencies)
'locales' => [
'en',
'de',
'fr',
'es',
],
// Path for storing your own SQLITE database
'database_path' => database_path('iso-countries.sqlite'),
];
After making changes to the config you need to re-build the database with the following command:
php artisan db:seed countries:build
This will create a new SQLITE database and stores it in your project at database/iso-countries.sqlite
. Exclude this
file from .gitignore
to have it available in all environments.
# database/.gitignore
*.sqlite*
!iso-countries.sqlite

Each of the package models (Country, Language, Currency) has a ->name
attribute, which will be displayed in the app's
locale, using the spatie/laravel-translatable package. The default
config will migrate localized names for en
, de
, fr
, and es
. This can be adjusted in the config. The
config app.locale
and app.fallback_locale
are automatically included.
// Set the app locale
app()->setLocale('fr');
// Retrieve the top 10 countries in Africa (by population):
Io238\ISOCountries\Models\Country::where('region', 'Africa')->orderByDesc('population')->limit(10)->pluck('name');
// Country names will be returned according to the app locale (fr = French)
Illuminate\Support\Collection {
all: [
"Nigéria",
"Éthiopie",
"Égypte",
"Congo-Kinshasa",
"Afrique du Sud",
"Tanzanie",
"Kenya",
"Algérie",
"Soudan",
"Ouganda",
],
}
If you already use ISO codes in your models, you can enrich them by casting them as Country/Language/Currency model:
use Io238\ISOCountries\Casts\Currency;
class MyModel{
// ...
protected $casts = [
'currency' => Currency::class,
];
// ...
}
// Now you can dynamically retrieve all meta data associated with the currency
MyModel::first()->currency;
Io238\ISOCountries\Models\Currency {
id: "JPY",
name: "{"en":"Japanese Yen","de":"Japanischer Yen","fr":"yen japonais","es":"yen"}",
name_plural: "Japanese yen",
symbol: "¥",
symbol_native: "¥",
decimal_digits: 0,
rounding: 0,
}
// When filling the model, the ISO code (string) or the model can be used
MyModel::first()->update(['currency' => 'USD']);
MyModel::first()->update(['currency' => Io238\ISOCountries\Models\Currency::find('USD')]);
