XK is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 equivalent user-assigned code element used to represent Kosovo.

Use

The following organizations have been known to have used the code XK to represent Kosovo:

Potential assignment of an official ISO 3166-1 code for Kosovo

According to rules of procedure followed by the ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency, a new ISO 3166-1 code for Kosovo will be issued once it appears in the UN Terminology Bulletin "Country Names" or in the UN Statistics Division's "list of Country and Region Codes for Statistical Use".[14] To appear in the terminology bulletin, Kosovo must either (a) be admitted into the United Nations, (b) join a UN Specialised Agency or (c) become a state party to the Statute of the International Court of Justice.[15] Criterion (b) was met when Kosovo joined the International Monetary Fund[16] and World Bank[17] in June 2009, however a terminology bulletin has yet to be circulated.

ISO affirms that no code beginning with "X" will ever be standardised as a country code. ("XK" for Kosovo is a unilateral "user assigned code" and not an ISO 3166 standard country code.) Consequently if/when Kosovo is recognised, this XK code will need to be replaced with one beginning with another letter.
