Api Endpoint

Country Facts API

Verified practical facts for one country in one JSON call: VAT/GST rates, 2026 public holidays, tipping, power plugs and voltage, emergency numbers, timezone, minimum wage, visa rules, customs allowances and corporate tax (58 topics, 195 countries). Cheaper than 58 single-field calls. For AI travel agents, tax tools and e-commerce. Pass an ISO alpha-2 code, e.g. /api/v1/country/JP for Japan.
