These in-house maps show the territories within our European map extent. Territories outside this extent, including several outermost regions, are not shown. For overseas territories, also see the official map with insets below.

Official map of the European Union

The Council of the European Union offers a map of the 27 member states, with flags and insets for non-continental and overseas territories. The consulted page describes the 2020 edition and links to editions available from the Publications Office.

This reference links to the official source: no Council file has been rehosted here. The Council reproduction terms require source attribution and provide exceptions for third-party rights.

What area is shown?

Extended coverage including Iceland, Cyprus and Turkey; Russia is shown as far as approximately 60° E. Territories outside this area are not shown. Small states and islands are highly generalised.

The reference boundaries do not describe current military control. Kosovo is identified as a territory with disputed status; the map takes no position on that status.
