Country

Overview

Country is a free public API in the Geocoding category. Get your visitor’s country from their IP.

Geocoding APIs turn addresses into coordinates and back — essential for maps, logistics, and location-aware features.

You can use this API in prototypes, side projects, and production applications — just keep the provider’s usage policy in mind.

Authentication

Country requires no authentication — you can start calling it directly, which makes it great for quick experiments and client-side demos.

HTTPS & CORS

• HTTPS: supported — traffic to Country is encrypted, so it is safe to use from production apps.
• CORS: enabled — Country can be called directly from the browser without a proxy, which simplifies client-side integrations.

2. Make a test request with curl or your favourite HTTP client.

Rate Limits & Notes

• Rate limits, quotas, and free-tier terms are defined by the provider — always check the official documentation for Country before scaling up.
