Getting country name from country code in WooCommerce

Question

WooCommerce defines countries as follows (edited for brevity):

class WC_Countries {
    public $countries;

    public function __construct() {
        global $woocommerce, $states;

        $this->countries = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_countries', array(
            'AF' => __( 'Afghanistan', 'woocommerce' ),
            'AX' => __( '&#197;land Islands', 'woocommerce' ),
            'AL' => __( 'Albania', 'woocommerce' ),
            'DZ' => __( 'Algeria', 'woocommerce' ),
            // […]
        ));
    }
}

When an order is placed, the country code is written to the WordPress wp_postmeta table and can be extracted anywhere an order id can be accessed using the get_post_meta() function:

get_post_meta( $order->id, '_shipping_country', true ),

Since we are simply retrieving two characters from the database, the question is how to translate the shipping country code (e.g. AF) to the country name specified in the WC_Countries class?

You can access the WC_Countries class with WC()->countries. So to get the country name from an order, you must use:

WC()->countries->countries[ $order->shipping_country ];

On WooCommerce 3.0+ you should use:

WC()->countries->countries[ $order->get_shipping_country() ];

If you like to get the state, you need before check if exist, since WooCommerce doesn't include all states, so here what do you need:

$states = WC()->countries->get_states( $order->get_shipping_country() );
$state  = ! empty( $states[ $order->get_shipping_state() ] ) ? $states[ $order->get_shipping_state() ] : '';

And how to get country name in specific language? For example sk_SK? – Jasom Dotnet Jun 01 '17 at 09:45
Neat solution, just want to mention its recommend to use `WC()->countries->get_countries()` to get the country array – Petschko Aug 12 '21 at 13:01

To get the state name from state code you can use.

WC()->countries->states[$order->billing_country][$order->billing_state];

I was looking how to get the Woocommerce shop base address, not the cart or an order address, and this thread comes in many Google keywords related to the topic. I came accross the following answer which I updated a little : https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/334608/177690

private static function afg_getBaseAddressData() {
    return array(
        'address' => WC()->countries->get_base_address(),
        'address-2' => WC()->countries->get_base_address_2(),
        'city' => WC()->countries->get_base_city(),
        'zip' => WC()->countries->get_base_postcode(),
        'state' => WC()->countries->get_base_state(),
        'country' => WC()->countries->countries[WC()->countries->get_base_country()],
        'mail' => self::afg_getPublicMail()
    );
}

private static function afg_getPublicMail() {
    //replace by the way you get an email address
    return filter_var(get_option('address-public-mail'), FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL);
}

public static function afg_getAddressTemplate() {
    $datas = apply_filters( 'afg_shop_base_address', self::afg_getBaseAddressData() );
    $html = '';

    $html .= '<address>'; 
    foreach ($datas as $key => $data) {
        if($data) {
            $html .= '<p class="address-line '.$key.'">'.$data.'</p>';
        }
    }
    $html .= '</address>';

    return $html;
}

function a000_remove_bundles_counting(){
//////////////////////////////
global $woocommerce_bundles;
remove_filter( 'woocommerce_cart_contents_count',
array( $woocommerce_bundles->display, 'woo_bundles_cart_contents_count' ) );
}
add_action( 'init', 'a000_remove_bundles_counting' );
///////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////

function d000_cart_contents_count( $count ) {
    global $woocommerce;
 $cat_check = false;
  foreach ( $woocommerce->cart->get_cart() as $cart_item_key => $cart_item ) { //foreach

 $product = $cart_item['data'];

 if ( has_term( 'VIP', 'product_tag', $product->id ) ) {//search product_cat
$cat_check = true;
// break because we only need one "true" to matter here
if (!function_exists('woo_override_checkout_fields')) {
function woo_override_checkout_fields( $fields ) { // woo_override_checkout_fields Function


$fields['billing']['billing_country'] = array(
'type' => 'select',
'label' => __('Country', 'woocommerce'),
'options' => array('US' => 'United States(US)')
); 

$fields['billing']['billing_state'] = array(
'type' => 'select',
'label' => __('State', 'woocommerce'),
'options' => array('CA' => 'California(CA)')

);

return $fields; 
} //end woo_override_checkout_fields Function
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields' , 'woo_override_checkout_fields' );

} // end search product_cat 
  }// end foreach



return $count;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_cart_contents_count',
'd000_cart_contents_count' );

First you have set product tag "VIP or what ever you like and then you will add it to code

if ( has_term( 'VIP', 'product_tag', $product->id ) ) {//search product_cat 

    $cat_check = true;
}

in this function looking is there any product with "VIP" Product tag. and $cat_check = true;

then inside this in function we adding function woo_override_checkout_fields( $fields ) function to set limited country as shipping country field.

Inside woo_override_checkout_fields( $fields ) { }

Set which country you want to show

$fields['billing']['billing_country'] = array(
'type' => 'select',
'label' => __('Country', 'woocommerce'),
'options' => array('US' => 'United States(US)')
);



$fields['billing']['billing_state'] = array(
'type' => 'select',
'label' => __('State', 'woocommerce'),
'options' => array('CA' => 'California(CA)')

);
