# Value.SelectCountry

## Import

```tsx
import { Value } from '@dnb/eufemia/extensions/forms'
render(<Value.SelectCountry />)
```

## Description

`Value.SelectCountry` will render the selected country name by `value`'s ISO code ([ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2)). It displays the country name in the current locale. If the value provided is not a valid/supported ISO code, it displays the value.

There is a corresponding [Field.SelectCountry](/uilib/extensions/forms/feature-fields/SelectCountry) component.

```jsx
import { Value } from '@dnb/eufemia/extensions/forms'
render(<Value.SelectCountry path="/country" />)
```

### The `useCountry` hook

You can use the `Value.SelectCountry.useCountry` hook to get the country name by ISO code ([ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2)). It returns the country name in the current locale.

```tsx
import { Value } from '@dnb/eufemia/extensions/forms'

const MyComponent = () => {
  const { getCountryNameByIso } = Value.SelectCountry.useCountry('NO')
}
```
