Address Validation API coverage details

  • The Google Maps Platform's Address Validation API provides international address validation coverage for a wide range of countries, as detailed in the table.

  • While the API is generally available for most listed countries, India is currently in preview (pre-GA) and may have limited support and potential for changes.

  • For countries in preview, using thegoogle.type.PostalAddress.region_code in API requests is strongly recommended to enhance performance.

  • The API'sresidential andcommercial address metadata properties are only populated for specific countries, as indicated in the table with a black circle symbol (⬤).

  • Address Validation API support is not extended to dependent territories with unique CLDR codes, except for those explicitly mentioned in the coverage list.

The Google Maps Platform team is constantly working to improve internationalcoverage for our API services. The following list shows the latest coveragedetails, on a country-by-country basis, for the Address Validation API. Data qualitycan vary by country.

Note: The API only populates the response with theresidential andcommercialAddressMetadataproperties for the countries called out in the table.Note: Countries marked by are in preview (pre-GA). For those countries, we strongly recommend you include thegoogle.type.PostalAddress.region_code in the API request to improve performance. In addition, pre-GA products and features might have limited support, and changes to pre-GA products and features are not guaranteed to be compatible from version to version.
