Octoberbe now you have plans to buy an original but used iPhone and are now looking for information about which country the code for the original iPhone is from.
Don’t worry, in this article I will provide information on iPhone codes for each country (worldwide). Read more below.
Why are iPhone codes different for each country?
Each country has different regulations and standards for telecommunications equipment, such as cellular networks, frequencies, and the technology used. Different iPhone codes reflect these differences, allowing Apple to produce and sell iPhones that are compatible with the specifications and requirements applicable to each country.
These differences are not just limited to model codes, but can also include differences in network support such as LTE frequencies, SIM card support, and special features tailored to local needs.
For example, the iPhone in Japan (J/A) does not have a silent feature on the iPhone’s rear camera and front camera. Why? because in Japan there is a rule not to take photos secretly.
These differences allow Apple to meet the legal and technical requirements of each country, as well as ensure proper compatibility with local telecommunications infrastructure.
So what about the quality of the iPhone, is it different? No friends, even though the price is slightly cheaper, the quality of an original iPhone from any country remains the same, provided that the spare parts have never been replaced.
iPhone Code Function
iPhone as the most popular smartphone device throughout the world has different region codes. The iPhone Country Code was created specifically to differentiate and identify the country where the device was made.
Apart from that, this iPhone code also functions as a condition for a warranty claim. If you buy an official iPhone in Indonesia, you can only claim the warranty on the iBox which is available throughout Indonesia.

- iPhone PA/A
- iPhone ID/A
- iPhone LL/A
- iPhone ZP/A
- iPhone PA/A
- iPhone J/A
That’s what’s been out a lot in marketplaces or iPhone buying and selling forums in Indonesia, up to now.
How to Find Out Which Country’s Phone Code
There are two ways to view the iPhone code, the first is through settings and the second is by looking at the physical box of the iPhone itself.
Let’s check the easiest way first.
1. Check iPhone Code via Settings
- First open the application Arrangement.
- Scroll down and select an option General > About.
- Information will appear iPhone Model NumberWell, the last 3 codes show information about which country your iPhone comes from (match the list of iPhone codes above).
2. Check iPhone Code via Dushbox
Apart from checking the settings, you can also find out the iPhone code in dushbox. An official or original iPhone must have packaging, so on the back of the packaging there will be a code or iPhone model number.
Here is an example of a dushbox on the back of an iPhone.
Is it possible to change the iPhone country code
Many people don’t know that the country code on the iPhone can be changed by ourselves. iPhone users can change their country code via B-BOX and special iPhone software, such as 3uTools and JCID Repair Assistant.
However, please note that changing the iPhone code has no effect on the IMEI, the IMEI number will still use the original number.
So, even if you change the iPhone’s country code from outside and then bring it to Indonesia, you still won’t be able to operate the iPhone in Indonesia because the IMEI is not registered in the Ministry of Industry’s database.
The final word
That’s information about iPhone region codes from various countries, now you don’t need to be confused anymore about which country your iPhone comes from.
