Currently for Tuvalu, ISO 3166-2 codes are defined for 1 town council and 7 island councils. Niulakita, which now has its own island council, is not listed as it is administered as part of Niutao.
Each code consists of two parts, separated by a hyphen. The first part is TV, the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code of Tuvalu. The second part is three letters.
