==Cantons== {{Switzerland Cantons Labelled Map|float=right}} The two-letter abbreviations are widely used, e.g. on [[Swiss car number plates|car license plate]]s and as disambiguator for localities on postal addresses if two localities in different cantons have the same name. They are also used with the prefix "CH-" as [[ISO 3166-2:CH|ISO 3166-2 codes of Switzerland]], e.g. CH-SZ for the canton of Schwyz. SFSO also uses a numerical code ordering the cantons by their [[Constitution of Switzerland|constitutional order]] (1 to 26). The [[List of FIPS region codes (S-U)#SZ: Switzerland|FIPS 10-4 region codes of Switzerland]] were used by the United States government. This standard was withdrawn in 2008. The [[NUTS of Switzerland|NUTS-3 codes]] are used by the [[European Union]]. {| class="vcard wikitable sortable" style="text-align:center" |+ class="fn" | Data codes for Cantons of Switzerland |- !
