# Country/Region

Adding a `country` flag to the authorization header enables one to specify which country IP to use to process the request. The value of this parameter is a case insensitive country code in 2-letter [**3166-1 alpha-2 format**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2). For example, `US` for United States, `GE` for Germany and `VN` for Vietnam.proxy.
